Disable double/triple click detection

[pablopeu]

you're the boss!!! The tap handler did solve my issue. Thanks for all the help!!

[pablopeu]

Thanks a ton!

[LennartHennigs]

(Almost done - still have to do long click...)
:-)
You are welcome.

[pablopeu]

You made me grin! Thanks again. Its not a full keyboard, just a few keys for a custom remote keyboard, trying to avoid complexity by not using a keyboard matrix.

[LennartHennigs]

No. No downside. It does not respect the double or triple click timings. Thus, it reports clicks immediately.

[LennartHennigs]

Hey @pablopeu,
thanks for the feedback. I added two compliler switches (_IGNORE_DOUBLE and _IGNORE_TRIPLE) to the code.
It is not in the released version yet, as I want to add a longpress switch as well.
But if you download the latest version you can already use it.
Cheers

While you are at it, with the disable longpress switch, will I be able to detect two/three keys pressed at once? Think of CTRL-ALT-DEL or CTRL-X when emulating a keyboard like I'm doing. Thanks

[LennartHennigs]

I knew you'd ask. :-)
Take a look at TrackDualButtonClick. Set flags for "special" keys and go from there.
But if you do a real keyboard, I'd look for a keyboard matrix library instead, I think. Less pins to take care of.

[LennartHennigs]

done.

[pablopeu]

Hi, added the #define at the top of my program, downloaded latest library code, overwrited previous one, uploaded new code to ESP32 but doubleclicks do not behave like rapid single clicks, made a short video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b83OWDCFgO4

[LennartHennigs]

Hey, try to uncomment the defines in the library itself.

[pablopeu]

Did it and saw the compilation messages about the routines not being compiled, but still doesn't catch a fast click, maybe its because Im reading 12 buttons, dunno.

[LennartHennigs]

Hey,
I think you don't see some of the "fast clicks" because of the thresholds for double and triple clicks are still there.
A way around this could be to use setTapHandler().
This one is triggered on any click.

[pablopeu]

will look into it and let you know! Thanks Lennart

[pablopeu]

Did a quick test that worked, then did a find & replace on my full program: setClickHandler to setTapHandler and recompiled. Man, what a difference in responsiveness, its super fast on all the defined buttons (10 at this moment)

Thanks for the suggestion. BTW, is there a downside to using setTapHandler?

[LennartHennigs]

pushed new version (2.1.0)

[LennartHennigs]

Hey, I decided to remove the compiler switches as the tap handler solves your question. They only made the code more complex and did not really reduced the compiled code size.

Cheers
