Hi friends, FYI: I solved the problem!
1. For testing I ordered the cheapest USB footswitch fom Mr. Pesos -> 15.99 Euro 2. Also ordered an USB-A to Micro-USB adapter 3. Downloaded the software for setting up the footswitch, there is even a Mac version! 4. Configured the footswitch to act as a mouseclick 5. Tested with a quick LC app on my Android tablet and... ... IT WORKS, hooray! :-) The P.S. in my initial posting is still waiting for an answer. :-) > Am 25.05.2023 um 17:22 schrieb Klaus major-k via use-livecode > <use-livecode@lists.runrev.com>: > > Hi friends, > > I'm still an active musician (bass guitar) and am currently playing in four > bands. > > Nowadays bulky music stands on stage are OUT and tablets are IN! > So I am considering to create a little app for myself to display PDF > leadsheets > (= lyrics and chord symbols) on an Andorid tablet, which I still have to buy. > :-) > > There are some USB footswitches, and I would like to use one of them to > browse > through the (multipage) PDFs (next page, previous page). > > Anyone knows if these switches will act like an "external keyboard", means if > they > will just send any RAWKEY that I could catch in LC? > Or will I need something created with LCB to do so? > > Thanks for any hint!
