Title: RenderWindow#EnableKeyRepeat does nothing
Post by: rpgmaker on March 05, 2009, 01:48:42 am

When i tried disable key repeat, it does nothing. It keeps repeating key when i hold it down. Is there a solution to fix this problem? Thanks for the help

It works for me.

Can you give me a minimal and complete example which reproduces the problem? And some information about your configuration(OS, version of SFML, ...)?

I am currenting using windowxp home with sfml 1.4.

I did something similar to below

Code: [Select]

//Create Render Window
MyRenderWindow.EnableKeyRepeat(false);
//Start Render Loop
while(true){
MyRenderWindow..DispatchEvents();
MyRenderWindow.Clear();
.....
if(MyRenderWindow.Input.IsKeyDown(KeyCode.A)){
   //To something
}
MyRenderWindow.Display();
}

I guess want i am really looking for is IsKeyPressed because it seem like KeyDown would execute as long as the key is down. I thought that by setting KeyRepeat to false, that it only execute my code for each press rather than for the period of time which the key is down.

IsKeyDown is a state, it will be true as long as the key is down. EnableKeyRepeat is for controlling the behaviour of KeyPressed events.

What do you mean by "EnableKeyRepeat is for controlling the behaviour of KeyPressed events."

EnableKeyRepeat is used for Event Processing.  Instead of using an sf::Input check out sf::Event

Look at the Tutorials sections over events:
http://www.sfml-dev.org/tutorials/1.5/window-events.php
and take a look at the KeyPressed part.
