! Introduction
|
|
|
|
The keyboard widget allows ActionWidgets to be triggered by specific key combinations. There is also a shorthand for generating [[Messages]] via the `message` and `param` attributes.
|
|
|
|
! Content and Attributes
|
|
|
|
The content of the `<$keyboard>` widget is rendered normally. The keyboard shortcuts only take effect when the focus is within the contained content.

|
|
|
|
|!Variables |!Description |
|
|
|`event-key` |The <<.var event-key>> variable contains the character, if possible. eg: `1`. You can experiment with some settings at: [[Key Codes (Example)]] |
|
|
|`event-code` |The <<.var event-code>> variable contains a character description. eg: `Digit1` instead of `1`. Or `Space` instead of an empty string ` `, which is hard to see|
|
|
|`event-key-descriptor` |The <<.var event-key-descriptor>> variable is available if the keyboard event captured was configured using a [[keyboard shortcut descriptor|Keyboard Shortcut Descriptor]] of the form `((my-shortcut))` which references a configuration tiddler. |
|
|
|`modifier` |The [[modifier Variable]] contains the Modifier Key held during the event (can be <kbd>normal</kbd>, <kbd>ctrl</kbd>, <kbd>shift</kbd>, <kbd>alt</kbd> or combinations thereof) |
|
|
|
|
! Key Strings
|
|
|
|
Key strings are made up of one or more key specifiers separated by spaces. Each key specifier is zero or more of the modifiers <kbd>alt</kbd>, <kbd>shift</kbd>, <kbd>ctrl</kbd> or <kbd>meta</kbd> followed by the name of a key, all joined with "+" plus or "-" minus symbols. Key names are either the letter or digit printed on the key (eg "a" or "1"), or one of the special keys <kbd>backspace</kbd>, <kbd>tab</kbd>, <kbd>enter</kbd> or <kbd>escape</kbd>.
