Display keyboard input in IGUIEditBox

[area51]

I seem to be having problems displaying keyboard input from a IGUIEditBox.

Is there an elegant/automatic way of doing this without having to rely on a massive switch statement within the Event handler catering for every KEY_PRESS. Here is roughly what I'm doing.

1. Getting active camera and setting InputReciverEnabled to true
2. Setting editBox to visible
3. Getting GUIEnvironment to setFocus on editBox

Edit box and blinking cursor cursor are displayed, but no input from the keyboard displayed.

Is it supposed to persist itself automatically, or do I need to handle them as events?

Any help would be appreciated[/list]

Hm, maybe your are using Linux? There are still some bugs in that version.
If not, try and have a look at the 9th tutorial, it works there without problems.

Thanks for your advice, I completely forgot about the Mesh viewer tutorial, although I still have the problem.

The bug is in my implementation as I am easily able to get it working in the 'Hello world' example, even with addCameraSceneNodeFPS and setInputReceiverEnabled etc..

Again thanks for your prompt feedback.

..forgot to log in as well, is on a Windows box also. Cant seem to get one working in the TechDemo either, maybe something in there is causing this problem, anyway, back to debugger
