how to disable a keyboard key

hi everybody,

can you explain or give me the script whitch can disable keyboard key?

thank you for your response.

 

you can not disable a key but you can just not react to it beeing pressed

 

You could do something like this:

Code (csharp):

1.     private string text = "I bet you can't type an A!";
2.  
3.     void DisableKey( KeyCode key )
4.     {
5.         if( Event.current.keyCode == key  ( Event.current.type == EventType.KeyUp || Event.current.type == EventType.KeyDown ) )
6.         {
7.             Event.current.Use();
8.         }
9.     }
10.  
11.     void OnGUI()
12.     {
13.         DisableKey( KeyCode.A );
14.         text = GUILayout.TextArea( text );
15.     }

 

can we do a javascript version of this?
I'm working on it, but don't know much outside of javascript.

 

Code (csharp):

1.    private var text = "I bet you can't type an A!";
2.  
3.    function DisableKey( key : KeyCode )
4.    {
5.       if( Event.current.keyCode == key  ( Event.current.type == EventType.KeyUp || Event.current.type == EventType.KeyDown ) )
6.       {
7.          Event.current.Use();
8.       }
9.    }
10.  
11.    function OnGUI()
12.    {
13.       DisableKey( KeyCode.A );
14.       text = GUILayout.TextArea( text );
15.    }

I also did a modified version for a blog post here (C# though): http://angryant.com/2009/09/07/i-bet-you-cant-type-an-a/

 

thanks man, awesome stuff!

 

Strange... It works, but only in the editor. Compiled code responds to the key :|
