This thread is for all information's, questions, and other things that affect the input boxes.

Old discussion about the TextBox: https://chdk.setepontos.com/d/7272

How To use the input boxes:
Textbox:
With the textbox you can easily enter small text's (e.g. to rename a file).
There are three modes of the box: The edit mode to input/edit text, the navigate mode to navigate in the text and the button mode to select OK or CANCEL.
The controls are:

UP Enter a character of the first keyboard line (edit mode)
DOWN Enter a character of the last keyboard line (edit mode)
RIGHT Enter a character of the right keyboard line (edit mode), move cursor right (navigate mode), switch button (button mode)
LEFT Enter a character of the left keyboard line (edit mode), move cursor left (navigate mode), switch button (button mode)
SET Select character (to input a char of the same line, edit mode), click button (button mode)
JOGDIAL RIGHT Move cursor right (edit, navigate mode), switch button (button mode)
JOGDIAL LEFT Move cursor left (edit, navigate mode), switch button (button mode)
SHUTTER HALF Select keyboard (edit mode)
ZOOM IN Insert space (edit mode)
ZOOM OUT Delete character left to the cursor (edit mode)
MENU Switch mode

Number Box:
The number box is a box to input double and int values. She also has three modes: one mode to go through the numbers by counting (i don't know if this is correct in English it should be "durchzÃ¤hlen" in German), one to set a digits value and the button mode.
The controls are:

UP Add 10[sup]-fractional digits[/sup] (e.g. if there are 5 digits after the decimal point, add 10[sup]-5[/sup]=0.00001, first input mode), add 10[sup]position[/sup] (e.g second digit on the left of the decimal point is selected add 10[sup]2[/sup]=100, second edit mode)
DOWN Subtract 10[sup]-fractional digits[/sup] (e.g. if there are 5 digits after the decimal point, subtract 10[sup]-5[/sup]=0.00001, first input mode), subtract 10[sup]position[/sup] (second edit mode)
RIGHT Change to the next digit on the right (second input mode), switch button (button mode)
LEFT Change to the next digit on the left (second input mode), switch button (button mode)
ZOOM IN Change to the next digit on the right (second input mode)
ZOOM OUT Change to the next digit on the left (second input mode)
JOGDIAL RIGHT Add 10[sup]-fractional digits[/sup] (input modes), switch button (button mode)
JOGDIAL LEFT Subtract 10[sup]-fractional digits[/sup] (input modes), switch button (button mode)
SET Click button (button mode)
MENU Switch mode
