Earth Mode #4

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Update the driver to send keystrokes to Firefox. The HelloEarth demo
provides similar functionality as Google Earth. That is, I can rotate the
earth and zoom in and out with keyboard inputs. These will be simulated by
Air-Mouse. This will act as backup if Earth Mode doesn't work.

We shall call this FirefoxEarth mode! :P

Firefox earth mode same as Google Earth mode. No difference. Both of them fail 
to
rotate the earth. Hence updating the Summary

I have had some updates: I discovered that I was using a wrong API: FindWindow,
insted of FindWindowEx. We cannot use FindWindow to send keys to Google Earth 
Child
Windows.

Bombay: I tried sending keystrokes to Google Earth and it worked! I have sent 
it a 
*right cursor* com and and it accepts it. But the earth still doesn't rotate. 
Typically the earth rotates right when you press the right-cursor key, and up 
when 
you press the up when you press the up-cursor. The behavior on the simulation 
is 
different! Any clues?

While on the flight: I could successfully, send keystrokes {"DOWN"} to 
Cooliris. I am 
able to get the Picture Wall move via simulation! Yay!

Delhi: I couldn't get the earlier logic working on Google Earth. I had hoped 
the 2nd 
June development would help me move ahead. But Alas! I think the problem is 
with 
identifying the right _child window_.
