find.keyboardPopup() (finders.js VERSION 3) replaces the same
g_PopupManager lookup in the swipe, extra keys and touch typing patches
(VERSIONs 29, 24, 4). hub.js keeps its own: it gets no finder library.
VRKBD_VERBOSE and VRKBD_DISPLAY were undocumented; the extra keys section
gets a Debugging line like the others. That the routing is harmless on
other keymaps was said twice; now once, under Layouts.
A CDP call sent after the socket closed (e.g. Steam restarting between
Runtime.enable and the first inject) waited forever, so the helper hung
instead of reconnecting. Such calls now resolve empty at once.
down:/up: were checked with MODKEY[arg], which inherited names like
constructor or toString pass (xdotool then got a junk key name). The check
is now allowedMod() in allowlist.mjs, covered by its test.
keyboard.vr.functionKeys.enable (default off): while AltGr (Fn on layouts
without AltGr) is one-shot, locked or held, the strip shows F1-F12 instead
of the suggestions. A tap types the extra key VKX_F<n>, which the extra
keys' patch presses with xdotool together with the active Ctrl/Alt/Shift
(Alt+F4, Ctrl+F5) and releases the toggles; the text model resets, like
for Esc. The suggestions are kept as they are meanwhile, so when AltGr goes
off the strip shows the same items and selection again.
- vr-keyboard/function-keys.js: what the strip shows, the F-key keys.
- patch.js (VERSION 27): the strip's view, F-key picks, AltGr changes via
a componentDidUpdate on the keyboard instance (and the poll).
- Allowlist: F1-F12 with any modifiers; Enter still refused.
- relay.mjs: up to 12 strip items.
- Assertions: needs keyboard.vr.enable, extraKeys.enable and a strip
position "above"/"below" ("inside" would hide the AltGr number row).
- Tests: function-keys.test.mjs (switching and restoring, keys against
the allowlist, text model), allowlist F-key cases.
Steam sends Tab as the text "\t" and drops Shift. With Shift, Tab now
goes to the xdotool helper (shift+Tab, ISO_Left_Tab on any keymap); the
suggestions text model resets on it like on Shift+arrows. The helper's
allowlist moves to allowlist.mjs with a test (flake check
vr-keyboard-extra-keys).
