Title: Sometimes numerical values can't be entered
Post by: rubberDuck on April 26, 2013, 09:16:24 pm

Hello.
This is something that has been driving me nuts for a long time.
Sometimes NVil reaches a state in which I cannot enter any numerical value into text fields. I click the text box, type values - nothing happens. The only remedy to it seems to be restarting NVil.

One thing I noticed (in one of the previous builds) is that it once had something to do with the CAPS-LOCK that turned on without my knowledge (the key's LED was wasn't lit, so technically it should be off!) and I could fix that with simply pressing this key once. This isn't the case any more in the newest builds.

Any ideas what's going on here?
Thank you.

How often does it happen? The last time the key handling code was modified was when you asked for the Wind key. Could that be related?

Hello IStonia!
Fortunately the issue happens quite rarely.
I'll try to pinpoint what causes it, but it's quite tricky. Sometimes I can work for days without any issues (but it might be so because I don't use numerical input too often), and sometimes it happens right after I launch NVil, like today: I launched NVil, entered my CTRL+SHIFT+RMB primitive creation custom radial menu and when I tried to enter a size of a cube, I simply couldn't.
