Easy way to get a wxTextCtrl click event? - wxwidgets

Is there an easy way to handle when a user clicks on a wxTextCtrl? After reading the docs wxTextCtrl I see that there isn't a click or double click event. I understand that there is no such thing as "click" events in wxWidgets from the question wxWidgets: Detecting click event on custom controls, so a simple mouse down event will do.
Example answer:
From: wx wiki
textCtrl->Connect(wxEVT_LEFT_DOWN,
wxMouseEventHandler(MyClass::OnClick), NULL, this );

Have you tried to handle the wxEVT_LEFT_DOWN and wxEVT_LEFT_UP events for your text control? Either by adding them to the static message map, or by calling Connect() for the handler methods.
Edit:
Not all events are listed in the documentation of a class. You need to go up in the hierarchy as well, from wxTextCtrl to wxControl to wxWindow. Unfortunately I can find the documentation for the mouse events in neither class. It should still be possible to handle them, even if it is not clearly documented.

Does Magnific Popup support custom events/buttons

I know Magnific Popup supports certain events such as Close, Next, etc. out of the box. But does Magnific support custom buttons and events if I wanted to add my own event hooks, such as Download, email, buy, or whatever button I wanted to created. I'm really just looking to be able to create my custom menu within the image 'div' area or directly beneath it. An example somewhere would be great. I just haven't been able to find any.
Before starting I would recommend reading the Magnific Popup Documentation
and familiarizing yourself with the available examples, more specifically the Pin it button example.
Naturally, you will have to code out the functionality of your menu items as you need them.
For the how to's on the specifics of your buttons you will have to do more specific searching as it does not appear that there is a built in
magic(click, poof)
{
//amazing things happen
}
function.
Good luck!

how to click on WebArea from QTP ?

In My test I want to click on object of Type WebArea which opens a webelement popup includes some fields that i need to test.
the problem that the popup not open after I click on WebArea object through the code.
the code I use as below.
Browser("WW").page("assessment").WebArea("areaassessment").Click
nothing hapens after the above line excuted.
Look into the HTML of the WebArea and see what action is triggering the popup. Normally it has something like onclick='showPopup();', but in other cases it is onmousedown or onmouseup.
If this is the case, you have to setup QTP accordingly. There are multiple roads to walk here, one is to see how you advanced web settings are configured. Go to Tools>Options>Web>Advanced and look in the Run Settings.
Setting the Replay Type to Event will replay your scripts by events (by default mousedown, mouseup and then mouseclick) or by mouse (You'll see your mouse pointer moving in this mode, QTP will replay by sending WM_* messages through the Windows api for movement to the correct screenlocation and triggering the click).
Allthough it replays a bit faster, if Run only click is checked, it is better to uncheck this to trigger all events / messages.
Events can also be fired by the FireEvent method:
Browser("WW").page("assessment").WebArea("areaassessment").FireEvent("onclick")
or through the object native methods:
call Browser("WW").page("assessment").WebArea("areaassessment").Object.click()
call Browser("WW").page("assessment").WebArea("areaassessment").Object.FireEvent("onclick")
As #AutomateChaos said there is probably an event that QTP isn't simulating, one way to work around this is to do as #AutomateChaos suggests and simulate the needed event. A simpler way is to change to device replay (as I described here and here).

Eclipse Jface Projection Viewer - no reaction to Ctrl-Z

In my current project I am working with a specific implementation of the jface ProjectionViewer attached to a TextEditor nested in a MultiPageEditor.
My task is now to implement a custom reaction to Ctrl-Z, and from what I get this is best done by attaching a specific implementation of IUndoHandler to the Viewer, all of that would be no problem.
But, pressing Ctrl-Z while having that TextEditor focused fails to cause any reaction that would be expected. While clicking "Undo Typing" in the context menu, which displays the associated key combination Ctrl-Z causes the TextViewerUndoManager.DocumentUndoListener's notification method is called, no line of code in the TextViewerUndoManager is touched when pressing Ctrl-Z.
As a possible source of this problem I assumed that maybe a handler might be defined for this key combination in an extension point, since I had previously experimented with this mechanism, but the plugin.xml does not define any key combinations nor undo handlers apart from one that is associated with a special context menu for a different widget.
It might be worth to note that Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V work as intended.
I need to find out what happens when Ctrl-Z is pressed and why nothing is relayed to the TextViewerUndoManager.
It would be very helpful if someone could describe the progress how eclipse handles these key combinations normally and decides which command is appropriate.
Thanks in advance
Cntrl+Z- undo is processed using OperationHistorySupport. Look at UndoActionHandler class.
Binding support is implemented using keydown event filter using WorkbenchKeyboard ( all keydown events first filtered using this class. this is how BindingService was implemented). This will figure out correspond command for the key binding.
DocumentUndoManager.UndoableTextChange is where undo operation is handled.

KML polygon colouring and mouse clicks

I'm working with http://workfoldr.com.s118234.gridserver.com/gmaps/ and in the KML file (found # http://workfoldr.com.s118234.gridserver.com/gmaps/file.kmz) it's clearly stated that there is supposed to be color-filled polygons.
But none are filled in, why?
Also, I might need to bind mouse click events. Is that just a simple event handler in the gmap API?
it looks like you are not closing the init function after kml();.
For an example of click event see here. For all the documentation and more examples see here.

Binding key combinations to your application

How can I bind a key combination to my vb.net application? I know it has SOMETHING to do with the registry, but I have no earthly idea what or how to go about doing this. I want the user to be able to hit those keys when the app is open and have it execute my function, but not while the app is closed.
Thanks for the help!
If you are using a dialog, then you can put '&' into the text for some controls (buttons, checkboxes, radio buttons, etc) and this will cause Alt plus the next character in the text to be used as an accelerator/shortcut. i.e. "&Open" would activate the Open button if you press Alt+O. "Op&en" would activate if for Alt+e.
Beyond that, as Jason Irwin said, you need to add an event handler to your Form for KeyDown or KeyPress events, and then check if the keypress is the key combination you are interested in. This will only work if the user activates your form (clicks in it to give it the input focus. If they put it behind another window, it will not react to the key presses)
If you don't want to show a form, or want to react to keypresses when you're not the input-focus application, then it gets a bit more complicated (you either need to use a hidden form or a keyboard hook)
edit
OK, it looks like you want a keyboard hook. This looks like a good article.
It depends on what you are trying to do:
If you have a gui application and you want to handle key events then you can do that in a keydown eventhandler
If you want to do more low-level stuff and have an application that will intercept all key strokes (regardless of whether or not the application has focus/is visible) then you need to use pinvoke to hit the win32 apis. I suggest you read the following:

Using Google, I found this Keyhook example.
I've worked with keyhooks before, in Delphi WIN32, so I am a bit familiar with them. (Just not in C#.) If you add one to a DLL, all Hell might break loose since most virus scanners will recognise this as malware behaviour. (Especially if you use them in the wrong way, causing them to be injected in each and every process that's running on your system.)
A keyhook will allow key combinations to be captured from other processes, though.
For a solution without programming requirements: Drop a shortcut for the application on your desktop. Edit it, assign a shortcut, close it. Press shortcut to test...
