I'm using custom buttons on a control bar + mouse clicks to create drawings and configure chart behaviors. To keep the number of buttons used down I would like to use a key modifier for mouse clicks. For example, i use a custom button to enter a drawing mode and then use a mouse click to define an index on the chart for constructing a drawing. If I could combine <CTRL> key + a mouse click then I could define another different behavior from just the mouse click and which saves from using another button. Do you have that available in ACSIL to combine special function keys like: <ALT>, <CTRL>, <SHIFT> to combine with left mouse clicks? Thanks |

We will see about adding flag variables to ACSIL to indicate these particular keyboard states.

It's been awhile since I posted, did you implement this requested feature? This capability will be a big benefit for everyone writing ACSIL functions. Regards |

Yes this has been done for some time now: uint16_t sc.SupportKeyboardModifierStates; uint16_t sc.IsKeyPressed_Control; uint16_t sc.IsKeyPressed_Shift; uint16_t sc.IsKeyPressed_Alt; We will have documentation available as soon as possible for these.
