[quote=309062:@William Reynolds]Joost/Massimo - I wanted to ask if you’ve made any progress on an ideal Virtual Keyboard project. I tried using both the Florence and Matchbox virtual keyboards, and they seem very buggy, in fact so buggy that I had to roll back and get rid of them all together.
So I’m checking with you to see if you or anyone you know has a good Xojo-based solution.
Many thanks for your feedback.[/quote]
Hi William, i never finished my work because the project was stopped, but the on-screen keyboard was almost finished, if you want i can share with you some code.
Joost: I agree that commercial opportunities are rare - I’m glad to work in a lot of R&D, and proof-of-concept projects in industrial automation are perfect for this application. My need for a good touch-screen keyboard solution is driven by a recent RPi project we’re running in support of a large data collection effort (24 RPi’s w/touch screens, piping data into an industrial control system). I wish I had projects like this more often!
Massimo: I’ll send you a direct message, and if you do share any code I’ll be happy to contribute and make any finished code openly available for you
(same goes for anyone else on the list)
Norman: I think I’m about 16-years deep with RealBasic (oops! I mean xojo), and could not be happier. We’d all like to see remote debugging etc. - but for now there’s no easier (or better) way for me to get my Web/x-Platform/RPi needs met! Have a great 2017!
Thanks for sharing. Think so too, but still a lot that could be done to get even more happy with the RPI platform and Xojo.
@William Reynolds : you use RPI for industrial automation ? Nice. Since I come from being an electronic engineer these projects I like most.
