#133 Can't add notes in tab

[zarg404]

Hi,
with mac os catalina 10.15.7 and tuxguitar 1.5.4, I am not able to add new notes in the tab field. I can add notes in the guitar neck part or with notes.
I have a macbook pro. I try to use the visual keyboard but with no luck.
I don't understand what is the problem. When I type on the numbers on my keyboard, nothing appears on the tab.

Thanks

I can add some X but not numbers...

I've similar problems when the lateral panel is closed.
Changing the note duration or moving to the next note, with the arrows in the bottom of the screen cause the loosing of the numpad.
A clicking, with the mouse, on the tab restore the working of the numpad...

@michel Where do I have to click to restore the numpad ? thanks

Normally there is a little square where the input will be done on the tab.
Clicking this little square restore the keypad.
But some time the all keyboard is loosed, and I've to restart Windows....
That is why I prefer to work with the lateral panel and hate to touch the arrows in the bottom of the screen...

I was able to fix that (issue comes probably from my AZERTY keyboard)
I remapped the numbers in Tools > Shortcuts > Set fret number 0...10, double click and select the new keys.

It might be linked to this keyboard issue: digits typed with a combination or keys are not interpreted as digits by TuxGuitar (I tested with 1.5.6).
E.g. on an AZERTY keyboard, typing "1" on first row of keys is interpreted by TuxGuitar as "shift+&" which is different from "1" typed with the numpad.
A fix is available here, since there is not much dev activity here
