Numeric Keypad Arrow Keys

[george-gallant]

I am using 1.5.7 on a dual boot Centos 6.5 And Windows 7 laptop. With Centos, the 4 arrow keys on the numeric pad do nothing when pressed in the IDE Editor. Same machine with Windows they work fine. The Page UP/DOWN and HOME/END work. Same keys work inside the Serial Monitor. Tried with builtin keypad as well as external usb keyboard. Same behavior on 2 Centos desktop machines.

Down graded to 1.0.5 and same results. This is the only application I use that exibits this behavior.

on CentOS (and other Linux distros,), numlock is disabled by default, unlike windows where is it enabled by default.
are you sure you tried toggling numlock ?

Yes. The key is working elsewhere as in the "File -> Save As..." or this message. Only problem is inside the text editor.

Can you give a try to latest hourly? http://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software#hourly We changed editor and your issue could have been autofixed

Does not seem to be fixed. I played with the system keycode table and
have it working (until next
system purge/update). Have one non-fixed system to test your implementation.

Fixed in 054a901. Fix will be available in next hourly build. Please remind that due to unknown glitches, only plain arrows work: no shift/ctrl/etc combination
