Seems to be when left a longer period between shut down and starts
Yes I can type pincode from keyboard just fine.
I expect next update will solve the issue @RickH but Iām really curious what steals the focus from SambaPOS. Maybe it just relates with how you start the application as @JTRTech tested.
I was trying that as I find additional clicks/taps is common for touch screens in my experience.
Because it takes a few moments for that loading screen to open and the pointer doesnāt show loading etc I regularly see people try to double click samba icon again thinking that first time didnāt work.
Yeah so true, people are SO impatient! The number of times I have had people complain āSambaPOS is slowā because it takes a few seconds to loadā¦ I actually make a point during training to explain to them that it is normal it can take 20 seconds or so to load (on a typical POS terminal). People these days expect everything loads like an app on their phone.
During those seconds they repeatedly double click the SambaPOS iconā¦
Something Windows didnāt solved properly to dateā¦
That was the #1 issue on SambaPOS 1.0 ā¦ Even it takes just 2 seconds to load some people intentionally clicks on the icon 4-5 times just to be ensure they could double clicked on it. Thatās why we donāt allow starting multiple apps by default.
However I never noticed that steals window focusā¦ I could only reproduced it by starting a notepad with SambaPOS. I hope this solves the issue.
It doesnāt help that on a touch screen sometimes you are not sure it registered a double click, even myself Iāve double tapped an icon for it to not register.
I have it set to single click so I donāt have that issue
It is much more a touch screen issue.
Are you able to delay the request for focus untill after the loading screen shows?
We do it when PIN box receives the keyboard input focus but unfortunately request for focus does not guarantee Windows will focus. Iāve used a Windows API level solution for that. I hope that will fix the issue.
@VehbiEmiroglu can we update beta?
OK i will update today
I uploaded a fresh build. Please look to the Beta topic
@emre tested on new release and still have same issue, need to touch screen first to allow mag card to swipe on inital login
Well I really canāt think anything else. As Iāve demonstrated it captures focus even while Iām typing in notepad. If we can find a way to reproduce this I can try to fix that.
OK I gave it another go and changed something else for the next update. Please let me know if it makes a difference or not.
Will do, Iāve not missed another update have I since you made this new change?
