Android Question [B4X] B4XPages - how to handle Activity_KeyPress

[Alexander Stolte]

How i use Activity_KeyPress in B4XPages?

I see in the main activity is the following:

Sub Activity_KeyPress (KeyCode As Int) As Boolean
    Return B4XPages.Delegate.Activity_KeyPress(KeyCode)
End Sub

But wich event is firing?

This is used for the back key. The CloseRequest event will be raised when the back key is pressed. Do you want to handle a different key stroke?

yes, i want to close the B4XDrawer if open.

Try putting this in the B4XPage with the Drawer

Private Sub B4XPage_CloseRequest As ResumableSub
    If Drawer.LeftOpen Then
        Drawer.LeftOpen = False       
        Return False
    End If
    Return True
End Sub

Hello all,

First time using B4XPage... how can we catch the volume button in B4XPage like we used to be

My Old example :

Sub Activity_KeyPress (KeyCode As Int) As Boolean 'Return True to consume the event
    Select Case KeyCode
        Case 4 'BACK KEY
            RaiseUserEvent("ExecReturn_Keycode_Key","BACK")
        Case 24 'VOLUME UP
            RaiseUserEvent("ExecReturn_Keycode_Key","VOLUP")
        Case 25 'VOLUME DOWN
            RaiseUserEvent("ExecReturn_Keycode_Key","VOLDOWN")
    End Select
    Return True
End Sub

You should probably start a new thread (question) since your comments don't relate to the subject at hand.
