Mouse Icon / HUD isn't updating and stays active with alt navigation!

[nurb2kea]

System Information

• OS: macOS 12.4 intel
• Blender version: blender 3.2 / 3.3
• Add-on version: 3.7.0

Expected behavior
Working like the usual screencast keys addon and shows the mouse clicks on the mouse icon/HUD.

Description about the bug
I'm using alt + left/middle/right mouse button with the magic mouse for navigation. It works as expected but the mouse icon/HUD isn't updated well. So after using alt and all three mouse buttons, all used buttons stay active...

I don't have magic mouse.
Does this issue also happen when you use other input devices?

[nurb2kea]

Yes, I tested it.
I guess it's the problem with the alt key together with the mouse action and a refresh to find out if the button is pressed or not.
This was also present in the former version of screencast keys, but I waited for an update what came the last days.

Also I can remember I have seen a video using screencast keys with the same issue.

@nurb2kea

I could not reproduce this issue.
Is it same result with default settings of Blender?

[mac4kent]

I has been notice many other youtube on screencast key is fail push the left button and middle button and right button lot bug already I can see it. Not matter Windows and Macintosh on Blender 3.1, 3.2, and 3.3 is same I believe. Old previous version it work but new version not work. I am not sure remember 3.5 it work and 3.6 Unknown and 3.7 bug. Lot different youtube I can see already.

@nurb2kea

How about using Screencast Key 3.5?
If @mac4kent 's comment is true, I could investigate this issue more detail.
Unfortunately, I could not fix this issue because of the lack of evidence.

[mac4kent]

Ok I check. Can you send me link previous version?

[nutti]

@nurb2kea @mac4kent

You can find the link from the Installation Document.

[mac4kent]

Version on screencast key 3.5 only 2.9.xx, 3.0xx (it work)

@mac4kent

Thanks.
I could find the main reason of this issue.

Some events from mouse can not be fired in Blender since 3.2.
I try to fix this issue, but it seems difficult to solve this issue from add-on level.
So, the solution may be incomplete.

[mac4kent]

Good I am glad to help you. I did deeply inspect lot of work and I found out. NP

[nutti]

Applied some patches.
Temporary version is now in develop branch.
You can try this version from this link.

I think this patch makes better behavior of mouse event.

[mac4kent]

This here and my issue ticket is duplicate exactly same. #109
You give me link (this link.) new version 3.8 it work resolve.
Don't forget on Edit > Preferences on screencast key put version 3.8 not 3.7.
Everything is RESOLVE I inspect on 3.2.0 and 3.3.0 Alpha it worked.

[mac4kent]

Screencast Key is so beautiful RESOLVE this youtube awesome. https://youtu.be/xw5DGZdUIfc

[nurb2kea]

@nutti Nooooo, what have you done..... :-) hehe
You done a good job. Thank you very much.
It's working fine on my end with latest macos + magic mouse & blender 3.3

So now I don't have anything to yell around anymore....

[mac4kent]

Sure you are welcome. I do use both 3.2.0 and 3.3.0 too both it work.

[nutti]

Thanks for the confirmation.
The patch has already merged into the master branch.

[mac4kent]

You forget to update 3.8.0
I still see 3.7.0

[nutti]

@mac4kent

We will not release v3.8 only after the small fix.

[mac4kent]

Oh I see allright no problem.

[mac4kent]
