KIS000708 - Applications should not capture events from numeric keys
From Forum Nokia Wiki
| Applications should not capture events from numeric keys | KIS000708 | |
| Overview | RWindowGroup::CaptureKey() can be used for capturing key events when the application is not on the foreground. However, this should not be done for numeric key events, as it will cause problems with the idle view of the phone application. | |
| Category | Symbian C++ | |
| Subcategory | UI | |
| Reported against | S60 3rd Edition S60 3rd Edition, FP1 | |
| Date identified | July 4, 2007 | |
| Symptoms | - | |
| Detailed description | When an application tries to capture events from numeric keys [0..9,*,#] with RWindowGroup::CaptureKey(), the capture process will fail when the phone application (in idle view) is on the foreground. Furthermore, capturing events from these keys will prevent the phone application from handling them properly. Note that SwEvent capability is required for RWindowGroup::CaptureKey(). | |
| How to reproduce | - | |
| Solution | No known solution. Applications should not try to capture events from keys 0..9, ’*’ or ’#’. | |
