This worked out great. I created a new applet with a toolbar (not visible) and a button. I set the buttons shortcut to A1 and specified the buttons onclick event to call the script I had inside the applet. Press the A1 button on the mobile device while in ArcPad and the actions detailed in the script are run.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Tue, 11 Oct 2011 19:28:36 GMT EricMcPhee 2011-10-11T19:28:36Z special task for buttons https://community.esri.com/t5/arcpad-questions/special-task-for-buttons/m-p/502587#M3661 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>I have several functional buttons on my device. On this device an OEM version of AcrPad is installed. Is it possible to configure these buttons for specific tasks, e.g. navigating, point capturing, defining of attributes. Just now I plan the following workflow: while traveling in the field, surveyor use functional buttons for navigating (zooming, panning, zooming to bookmarks etc). When it necessary, he push the button F1 (which is not used in previous menu) and start point capturing. While surveyor is logging GPS-data on the point, he enters attributes from the list using functional buttons, (e.g. push 2 - tree type, 3- birch tree, OK; 3 ??? status, 1 ??? infected, ????; 4 ??? height, 18 ??? 18m, OK; 5 ??? width, 30 ??? 30cm, etc.). Is it possible to create such a thing in ArcPad? I will be very glad to know all opinions.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Fri, 11 Feb 2011 13:26:42 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcpad-questions/special-task-for-buttons/m-p/502587#M3661 KonstantinAristov 2011-02-11T13:26:42Z Re: special task for buttons https://community.esri.com/t5/arcpad-questions/special-task-for-buttons/m-p/502588#M3662 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>I need specify functions of application for keys of my device.
