IR Sensitivity & Right Click
Hi Julien,
Wiibrew says that there are three known to work IR camera sensitivity settings. Johnny Lee’s program uses this Wiimote library which uses the maximum sensitivity settings. I assume that WiiRemoteJ might use another one. I actually wrote the developer of WiiRemoteJ an email about it a couple of minutes ago.
Just a suggestion for right click : I think that it would be better (if possible) if the user can right click once the second is over. Actually, right click happens when you release the button, but I prefer to wait 2 or 3 seconds to be sure that it works. I mean that the right click should happen directly at the end of the second without releasing the button…
The right mouse button is pressed after one second and released again if the IR pen is turned off. A click is the combination of press and release. So you’d prefer that a right click is executed immediately after the 1 second delay? It’s of course possible but raises one question: After the right click is executed, both mouse buttons are released, but the IR pen might be still on. How are you handling this case? Do you simply ignore all IR data till the pen is turned off and on again? Just proceeding normally wouldn’t be good since each right click would automatically be followed by a left button press. Do you understand what I mean?
Edit: You can change the default delay from 1 second to another value in case you didn’t notice. Just have a look at the preferences (either standard preferences on a Mac or Edit » Preferences on Windows)
