Title: Touch Screen Functionality
Post by: gjvander on February 19, 2012, 04:30:18 PM
Hi,

I would like to set up Mach with a number pad on the screen so I can enter data into MDI and DRO without a physical keyboard. I have seen some examples where a keyboard pops up, but I would prefer to have a static keypad displayed on the screen.

I suspect I will need VB code to accomplish this task, but was hoping for an example that I can reference.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Geo

OK, I think I have some working form of it. I have been around Mach3 about 24 hours, so I am sure there are issues in the code, but the basic idea is there.

This is only for the DROs. Maybe someone has advice on how to send text to the MDI?
