1. Q: wxEuphoria - key event
winHtml1 and winHtml2 are wxHtmlWindow's
btnHtml is a wxButton on winHtml1
The focus is on winHtml2
Click on the button and both winHtml1 and winHtml2 go away.
How can I do the same thing with a key press, as for example the ESC key?
procedure closeHtml(atom this, atom event_type, atom id, atom event)
show_window(winHtml1,0)
show_window(winHtml2,0)
end procedure
set_event_handler({winHtml1,btnHtml}, get_id(btnHtml),
wxEVT_COMMAND_BUTTON_CLICKED, routine_id("closeHtml")) -- This works.
set_event_handler({frameWin,winHtml2}, get_id(winHtml2),
wxEVT_CHAR, routine_id("closeHtml")) -- This does not work.

If wxEVT_CHAR doesn't work, try wxEVT_KEY_DOWN. It might also work with
wxEVT_CHAR, but with id = -1. -1 means that it won't filter the event
based on the id of the originating control.

It will likely be something like
KeyIs = get_key_code (event)
if keyIs = ? then...
You'll need to reassign the ? to the key ID of the ESC or whatever key you
might want.(Should be 27 for the ESC if not, see the Documentation) If you
need more help, try looking into the catch_keys.exw demofrom the wxEuphoria
demo's since that's where I got that snippet from.
