GLSL Hacker Keycodes

[tuzepoito]

Hi,

The documentation for gh_input.keyboard_is_key_down() states:

Code Select Expand


-- More key codes can be found in GLSL Hacker forum.
local KC_W = 17
local KC_S = 31
local KC_A = 30
local KC_D = 32
...


However, I can't find them. Eventually, I devised myself a list of keycodes so other people won't have to:

You may put that into an external .lua library to import it in your code.

So far, I've only tested it on a Windows environment. Feel free to make any corrections or add other keycodes that I might have missed.

Anyway, thanks for that nice tool you made JeGX  (though my CPU fans and graphics card probably wouldn't be so thankful  )

Thanks for your work!

I planned to post this list but to be honest, I just forgot it 

I checked and your codes are correct. I added the following codes to your list:

Code Select Expand


KC_LEFT_CTRL    = 29
KC_RIGHT_CTRL   = 157
KC_LEFT_ALT     = 56
KC_RIGHT_ALT    = 184
KC_NUMPAD_ENTER = 156
KC_CAPITAL      = 58
KC_SCROLL       = 70

-- Left and right Windows keys.
KC_LWIN         = 219
KC_RWIN         = 220

-- Numeric keypad.
KC_ADD         = 78
KC_SUBTRACT    = 74
KC_NUMLOCK     = 69
KC_NUMPAD1     = 79
KC_NUMPAD2     = 80
KC_NUMPAD3     = 82
KC_NUMPAD4     = 75
KC_NUMPAD5     = 76
KC_NUMPAD6     = 77
KC_NUMPAD7     = 71
KC_NUMPAD8     = 72
KC_NUMPAD9     = 73
KC_NUMPAD0     = 82


I just added a keyboard_codes.lua file in GLSL Hacker lib folder. It will be available with GLSL Hacker 0.6.4.3.

To load the keyboard codes in a demo:

Code Select Expand


lib_dir = gh_utils.get_scripting_libs_dir()
dofile(lib_dir .. "lua/keyboard_codes.lua")

I just added a keyboard_codes.lua file in GLSL Hacker lib folder. It will be available with GLSL Hacker 0.6.4.3.

That's nice

However, the new scancodes that you provided don't seem to work on Windows. And some of the numpad key keycodes conflict with the arrow keys'. Or is this fixed in the next version?

The support of shift, ctrl, alt keys are available in GLSL Hacker 0.6.4.3+:
