KeyDown Event Firing in Windows

[bkeeney]

The keydown event does not fire in Cocoa but still fires in Windows (unknown about Linux). That may cause some unpredictable behavior in legacy applications that have just switched to using the TextInputCanvas plugin.

Shouldn't the title of this bug be reworded to include "only", or renamed to ".. not in Cocoa"? Otherwise, it makes little sense. I gather you want it to fire in Cocoa, not stop firing in Windows?

No. The event does NOT fire in Cocoa nor do you want it to. It is a legacy event that means nothing for TextInputCanvas.

In Windows, this event still fires which is wrong. It should not fire at all to match what Cocoa does.

On Cocoa, I am seeing KeyDown events when the control returns false on the IsEditable event. So far this works great for me (I need both modes).

I have yet to test on Windows/Linux.
