<p>Imported from Wayback via edit</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>A very usefull feature is to install an on screen keyboard so that RDAirplay application can be driven from the touch screen only.<br /> <br /> This installation was done under Debian<br /> <br /> Get the on screen keyboard<br /> <br /> apt-get install xvkbd<br /> <br /> I actually downloaded the latest source for xvkbd which is 2.8 and compiled it myself. Debian only seems to have xvkbd 2.7 in Etch Stable<br /> <br /> <br /> In RDLibrary create a macro called &#039;Virtual Keyboard&#039; with RML command contents<br /> <br /> RN kstart --keepabove xvkbd -always-on-top -no-keypad -no-repeat -no-jump-pointer -geometry 630x185+190+000 -minimizable &amp;!<br /> <br /> Also in RDLibrary create another macro called &#039;Close Virtual Keyboard&#039; with RML command contents<br /> <br /> RN ps axco pid,command | grep xvkbd | awk &#039;{ print $1; }&#039; | xargs kill -9!<br /> <br /> On the Sound Panel in RDAirplay create 2 buttons each with 1 of the above macros in them, In our system every sound panel page has these 2 buttons at the bottom left as shown.<br /> <br /> [[Image:Rd02buttons.png]]<br /> <br /> To use the keyboard press the &#039;Virtual Keyboard&#039; sound panel button then press &#039;ADD&#039; to add a cart you will now see that the keyboard stays on top and it&#039;s geometry settings are such that Select Cart/Cart Filter free text entry is left exposed just below the keyboard, you can now type what you want to filter for a particular cart, select the cart and then place it in your live log. see below<br /> <br /> [[Image:Rd03buttons.png]]<br /> <br /> Pressing the &#039;Virtual Keyboard&#039; button several times will spawn several keyboards but when you press the &#039;Close Virtual Keyboard&#039; the underlying Macro will find all the xvkbd instances and close them.<br /> <br /> Things to do... xvkbd is very customizable and I want to remove the Alt/Meta &amp; Focus keys from the bottom line and put the Backspace key there then I can turn off the complete top row of Function keys, this will make the keyboard buttons larger and suitable for BIG FINGERS!!<br /> </div>
