Getting KeyCode for NUMPAD_ENTER in JavaFX [message #1744358]

I hope this is an appropriate place for this question, I didn't find any other forum for JavaFX problems....

However, here is my problem:

We want to listen to the ENTER key to notice when the user finishes an input.

Checking if the "normal" ENTER key is pressed, is no problem.

KeyCode.ENTER.equals(event.getCode())

event is an instance of a JavaFX-KeyEvent.

BUT if we want to listen if the Enter-key on the NUMPAD is pressed, this check will not work, because event.getCode() returns UNDEFINED in that case...

Is it possible to check if the ENTER-key on the NUMPAD is pressed? Or isn't this possible at all?

It looks to me like you can't find this out. No idea why because any other numpad-key can be detected - the only idea i have is that you you need to listen to KeyTyped and check the char-sequence Sad

Hy Tom,

thanks for your fast reply =).

Listening for onKeyTyped() works! =)
Then we are checking the character like this: "\r".equals(event.getCharacter());
