Tizen:Setting and Rotarydetent won't work in Wearable Web IME Application

I am developing a custom wearable keyboard application. When I use "document.addEventListener('rotarydetent ', function(){}, false)" to detect bezel rotation event, it won't work in this web IME application, although it will still work in a normal application.

Also, in config.xml file, "<tizen:setting hwkey-event='disable'/>" will not work either.

I am glad to know if these are bugs or these are how Tizen web IME is designed.

Can anyone help?

Hi, thank you. I have tried the code in web-helper-client.js file in 2.3.1 WebInputMethodEditor, however, it is still not working. Could you please tell me where to add that peice of code in web-helper-client.js file?

You add it in your main.js file.

I tried to add this code everywhere, but it just won't work. I just want to see how you can do that.

Sorry, you were right, it was in web-helper-client.js file.


Here is where I put my code in web-helper-client.js file.

        var direction = e.detail.direction;

var WebHelperClient = {

Hi, I created a whole new web IME 2.3.1 project, and then copied and pasted your code in web-helper-client.js and I didn't touch anything else. After I ran it on my gear s2, nothing happened when I rotate the bezel. So wierd.

Anyway, thank you for your answer.

Hi Tal Buaron,

Sorry, I have not been working on that part yet. But if I start working on it and find a way to do, I will let you know. By the way, I still want to know if you successfully detected the rotation of the bezel. If you can do that, pls let me know.

Thank you.

Hi,

I did tried the bezel rotation (same as you did) and it didn't worked, I will try more ways to do it and update you if I will find the solution.

The problem is that the bezel rotation is working on the application "under" the keyboard and not on the keyboard itself.

Thanks,

Tal b
