n900 keymaps needed
 

trying to enable the camera key in Sygic to enable rotate mode. does anyone know the decimal number and also the scancode for it? both long press and short press please

info must be out there as its used in shortcutd etc...

not sure but if anyone understands this and can help please??


; before decimal values of keys are posible two prefixes "U:" or "D:".
; If is defined the prefix "U:" key is send only by WM_KEYUP message.
; If is defined the prefix "D:" key is send only by WM_KEYDOWN message.
; In other cases are keys send by both messages.

; after decimal values of keys is posible specify scancode of key

; Example:
; VkLeft= U:037:080
; Only by WM_KEYDOWN is send key with value 0x25 and scancode 0x50

Re: n900 keymaps needed
 

AFAIK, it doesn't have one (happy to be proved wrong) but what programs like shortcutd is listen on D-Bus' System Bus where an event is emitted upon the pressing of the key. Short of having access to the code, you can't make Mobile Maps listen to it. You could nicely ask hopbeat/hqh, Shortcutd's developers, if they'll add an option to shortcut allowing it to be mapped to another key other than backspace.

Re: n900 keymaps needed
 

ok maybe a rethink then?? what about mapping to the space bar?

what i'm trying to do is get the program to rotate by pressing the space bar...2nd thoughts possibly bad choice!!!

how about the control key in top left?

Re: n900 keymaps needed
 

@dread123, no technical problem with adding support for any button through shortcutd and short camera press.
We have even planned to add support for arbitrary button with shortcutd, but it's better if there is any actual use for them.
Full press is more tricky, we do not plan to add this in shortcutd (in short: it needs to prevent camera application to launch and that is an ugly hack).

ok spoken to sygic team.. just trying to have little play really. can some-one pls post the maemo keybindings if they have them? not fussed with the hardware buttons -just the keyboard ones pls
thanks

Feature request fo shortcutd. Re: n900 keymaps needed
 

This maybe would be better in the shortcutd project place, as a feature request, but....

I'd like one choice for the short/long camera button press to be a configurable menu. Same kind of UI as is in the system-menu, what comes when power-button is pressed. There in the "shortcutd-menu" would be then buttons and respective commands configurable by shortcutd settings UI (or at first just by text file in ~/.shotcutd.d/). For example I would put two button emitters for CTRL C and CTRL V (only to foreground process), because some hildonised applications miss clipboard-copy and -paste in the program menu and one has to open qwerty-keyboard just for that. Also shortcuts to some useful own scripts/programs (sh/py/bin) run in a xterminal or without could be there in a shortcutd-menu.

i.e. ~/.shortcutd.d/usermenu.cfg:
"Copy" emit-key-foreground ^C
"Run foo" run-terminal /home/user/.scripts/foo.sh one two three
"Lets Surf" run /usr/bin/fennec
...and so on

edit:

Started to read shortcutd-talk-thread, and someone there already had suggested something like abobe. Only those configurable shortcuts to program/script launches I'd like also.

Re: n900 keymaps needed
 

no this is not a feature request. I am trying to find the keymaps for the n900..it just so happened that something good may have come about from my enquiry :p
