Text input in overlays

Post by k0r0z1f »

Hi, I've been wanting to start reseaching the code to know what it would take for having text input in overlays. Unless I'm doing something wrong, they are disabled while in overlays. I guess it's for not encumbering on Maptool's own keyboard inputs.

Am I wasting my time? Would it be possible? Where can I start looking in the code?

I think others have done this with java and keypressed with an overlay. I suggest going to the discord and discuss it there.
