Silverfox H1+ long-press
-
It's indeed a possible discussion between MRA and the supplier.
The answer is simple: SilverFox emits both the short press and long signal when long pressing. As you long press you get:
- Short press: clicked
- Long press: clicked
- Long press: released
- Short press: released
In my opinion the firmware should not emit the short press when it becomes a long press (that's just industry standard really).
SilverFox could argue that we need to cancel the short press when detecting a long press - theoretically possible but annoying with our framework and against my vision that it's a firmware issue -

I'll copy it to Silverfox, maybe they can take this into account and update their firmware.
Thanks!! -
That's fine!
I'm quite well in touch with Riku too so feel free to mention he can contact me -

Thanks!!@Quim-N it's the same issue with the C1 controller so if you can mention it too, that would be awesome

Thanks!!@Quim-N And you may as well mention the B8J to Riku too as this has the same issue.

Sent Corjan answer to Riku, and mentioned B8J and C1 common problem too. Thanks!

Thanks @Quim-N
It doesn't really bother me, I just tap the compass button twice and return to Dynamic view. -

@Corjan-Meijerink I know you do all you can to fix problems. In this case Iโd say It takes twi to tango.
Keep up you excellent work -

@Corjan-Meijerink Riku fron Silverfox sent me a couple of firmware updates to test them and now all buttons short and long-press do work fine.
I've tested it through DMD buttons app, in F2 mode via bluetooth (wich is the setting needed for MuRouteApp) and it returns these codes:
Center (โข) short 31, long 32
Minus (-) short 69, long 29
Plus (+) short 70, long 30Now the only issue seems to be on MyRoute's side, because not all button functions work in all menus and sub-submenus. This is what i've found:
Navigation view:
(โข) toggles compass modes
Long (โข) skip waypoint
(-) zoom out
Long (-) does nothing [should toggle timer modes?]
(+) zoom in
Long (+) enters menuNavigation menu:
(-) exits menuMap view
(โข) compass
(-) zoom out
(+) zoom in
Long (+) enters menuMain menu:
(โข) enters item
(-) exits menu
Long (+) also exits menuAccount menu and sub-menus:
(-) exits menu
Long (+) also exits menuOther menus:
-no enter, no exit (e.g no way to select or to initiate route)
-no way to access back arrow (on top left) nor other top screen items with joystick arrowsThank you!
