Wikipad: the online calculator keypad anyone can edit
« on: September 03, 2011, 12:11:54 pm »
My goal with this it to get as much information about the calculator's keys in one place as possible. The emphasis is on how they're usually used, to help future UI designers (for games and such) have a better idea of how to make things more consistent and intuitive for calculator users.

Double-click any section to edit. Information you enter is automatically automagically saved when the text box loses focus. Seriously, anyone can edit this thing (even bots), so please don't spam! I'm keeping logs just in case. If I do find vandalism, I'll have to force everyone to be registered in order to edit (all I have to do is uncomment a line) :/

I'm having trouble editing the text.  After I finish typing and defocus the browser, the text turns gray (which I believe is normal).  Upon refresh, the text is replaced with "0".  Now, the box is entirely gone.  (If you find "vandalism" on the mode key, it is due to this problem.  :/

By the way, I am using Google Chrome. 

EDIT: I'm able to edit other items now with no trouble, but the EOS box under the MODE button is still missing.
EDIT2: Now I can't click on any keys.

Yeah, it doesn't save entries, as far as I can tell. Also, keep in mind that getkeyr actually has 3 (4? not sure if lowercase gets its own) keycodes per key, and none for second and alpha.

Oh, and what is EOS?

Not sure why that happened, since it didn't happen to me. Which box was this?

That must be because ralph's problem corrupted the data on the MODE section. (Not your fault, just a bug.)

It does save, for me at least ??? And yeah, _GetKey should be in the form 0/S/A/a, where 0 is without modifiers, S is with 2nd, A is uppercase alpha, and a is lowercase alpha.

It's what TI calls the TI-OS.

The only one I've finished is 2nd <_<

By the way, I reset the thing, so please tell me if there are any more bugs.

Well, I think I found the problem.

It won't load entries you've put into it until you refresh the page, at least in chrome. But now it takes them!

Edit: I think I broke something......

I can't get it to work -- it lists a huge bunch of warnings in gray at the top.

A few more problems:

1. It's really hard to read the gray font.  Perhaps shift it to the side and give it a white background?

2. I can't click on another key when the text covers it.  Again, try shifting it to a different location.

Edit: Scratch that, I had to maximize my window.  That solved it :)

Yeah, not working well. Nice idea though.

This thing would come in help though.

It's actually working surprisingly well. Problem is that I'm doing a ton of bugfixing while everyone eles is editing, which was what caused some of the most recent problems. All your changes are safe in my logfile.

I use that all the time. It's a lot better than this when I just want the keycodes.

EDIT: Fixed lots of bugs. No box should ever disappear anymore.

EDIT2: Anyone think I should use Comic Sans?
