Repeating button causes screen blank to stop working

Post by dlmorgan999 »

I found another reproducible issue. Here are the steps:



- create a panel and add a property change button

- duplicate the button

- enable repeating on the duplicate

- add a screen blank button

- open the panel on a CE software remote

- press the screen blank button and confirm that the screen *stays* blank (it should)

- press the first (non-repeating) button

- test screen blank again (it should still work)

- press the second (repeating) button

- test screen blank again (it shouldn't work)



When I follow these sequence of steps I get to a condition where the screen blanks when I push the button but comes back on again a few seconds later. Also once in this condition the timeout screen blank never works. Closing and restarting the software remote works. This problem does *not* occur with the X86 software remote - the only one I know for sure that has the problem is the HPC2000/ARM remote.

I couldn't reproduce this on my PPC and my HPC2000 device died ages ago. However, I see something that *might* be causing the problem. I'll email you something to test.

Thanks Scott! I'll test it tonight when I get home from work and let you know.
