Hello there. Hopefully I am posting at the right place.
I am trying to get a keyPressed function to work so it changes the mode of my program, thus changing the properties of the moving ellipses shown in the application, but the behaviour of that function is extremely confusing.
- If I press the F or C keys, those are repeated twice.
- If I press the N key figuring at the end of the function, it’s only shown once.
- If I press any other key (who aren’t supposed to do anything), they’re shown once while they shouldn’t.
In addition to that, none of those keys seems to change the properties of my ellipses.
How can I fix all of this ?

Thank you by advance for giving me some of your time to fix my issue.
