| Hi guys - I ran into a small problem last night as I was trying to add a
"File->New" menu item in my FLTK code, with a global "Ctrl+N" shortcut.
I defined the menu the usual way (Fl_Menu_Bar *m = new Fl_Menu_Bar(...))
and made the shortcuts global (m->global()), but the "Ctrl+N" event
seemed to be captured only if the menu bar had the focus (which kinda
defeated the purpose of a global shortcut ;-)...
After poking around in the sources (version 1.1.4), I found that,
indeed, Ctrl+N, Ctrl+P, Ctrl+F and Ctrl+B are used for widget navigation
in Fl_Group.cxx (in addition to the usual keyboard arrows) and that
the Fl_Group will just consume the shortcuts and not pass them to the
global handler.
Is there a way around this? (Or am I doing something wrong? Have a look at the test.cxx attached to this STR.)
Being able to use "Ctrl+N" and "Ctrl+P" globally would be nice, as they
are the classic shortcuts for "New File" and "Print File".
Thanks,
Christophe | |

| Thanks, I've dropped the CTRL-NPFB mapping from Fl_Group entirely. | |
