Did anyone manage to get OnKeyDown to trigger in Ableton Live?
FL Studio responds fine. Ableton Live only responds when I use its Options.txt with
-_EnsureKeyMessagesForPlugins in it. Is there any way to get kb input to enter the plugin without this hack?
On a similar note, what's with the arrow keys only triggering WM_KEYUP in IPlug standalone mode?
Any tips/advice on a cross-platform, API-wide solution for keyboard support would be very welcome. I am aiming to use the full keyboard when the plugin has focus.
Additionally I don't need different regions of focus within the plugin's GUI. No matter where the mouse cursor is hovering or which control has been clicked last, I always want the same thing to happen to keyboard input.
I was first using a little key listener I wrote myself that was running on its own thread. Is this a viable solution at all? Again, any reflection is welcome.
