Re[4]: How to define shortcut keys for POS?
Guys, I'd like to stick to the Alt+G example.
I've been playing around and found that
- SHIFT and CTRL modifiers work, ALT do not (no idea why)
- VK_G and VK_1 are also virtual keys (I did not expect that)
Further problem is that SKU.GZ-1001 is defined in posmain.xml, and
I don't know how to tie it to lets say code 505, as key-code is
not an attr of the Button element in posmain.xml.
Some docs would be nice on this topic.
Thanks,
András

Jacques,
No problem.
No progress here, as we decided to use a Swing GUI.
The question is still open.
Thanks,

Andras,
Did you get through this finally ? Sorry, did not find enough time to seriously look at it yet.
