How to get keyboard Input?
I got stardust running with flatland. I have the falkon webrowser running and I can move the window around with my index controller and click stuff but I cannot figure out how to get keyboard input working? my headset is valve index and I'm using steamvr on endevouros with kde plasma and wayland.

ah yea ok so do you want to use a hardware or software keyboard?
Hardware keyboad. I set up my webcam so I can see my keyboard.
we don't yet have any software keyboards (contributions welcome)
we have manifold
oh shoot wait a moment i refactored that
so far only azimuth would work
shoot wait i guess we don't have that right now... my bad
i can fix it up real quick if you like
what kind of behavior are you expecting btw for keyboard?
also wait does a web browser actually work on stardust for once? :0
I'm not sure, it would be nice If I could press keys and they work on the window I'm looking at. Also Yeah, falkon seems to work well. I also got blender to open lol
ok what you're looking at
sure
yea blender's worked for a while but middle click doesn't yet work because... idk what to bind it to
i'm curious what you're using this for btw
like what's the setup you want
I'm going for the monitor replacement setup if that makes sense.
ok so similar to AVP?
and are you going to be moving around a lot or sitting down?
Setting down
asking because maybe kiara might work better for you
360deg ultrawide monitor i'm working on :p
Maybe, I really like the idea of setting at my desk with windows just floating around in my immediate field of view where ever I want them.
ok then, flatland it is!
i'll work on forwarding mouse/pointer right now
Thank you!
aha, i think i actually made something for this :D
called simular
since it's similar to simula
@gabe2252 done! pull the develop version of the server, flatland, and pull the latest
non-spatial-input
use manifold | simularThis is awesome! So far between this, simula, and Desktop+ this is the best desktop vr I have tried.
