AZERTY keyboard on Windows OS: SHORTCUT+SLASH key event does not run its consumer

[ouaibsky]

Hi

I try to set a key shorcut on a CodeArea like this:

        Nodes.addInputMap(codeAreaInstance
                          consume(keyPressed(SLASH, CONTROL_DOWN), this::commentRegion));

But nothing is happening, neither with "/" on numpad or "/" on regular place.
Replacing SLASH by other letter is working fine

Any ideas ?

PS: I'm running on windows 7, jre 8 upd 121 with azerty keyboard

I'm not sure why that's happening.... Perhaps, the JDK is mis-handling the keyboard input because of the azerty keyboard?

If you add a catch-all KeyEvent listener, what gets outputted when you type CTRL+SLASH?

@ouaibsky any updates on this?

Hi

A short update: While SLASH is working fine on my macbook pro, it fails on common windos keyboard (French)
I didn't investigate further more since I discover that DIVIDE is working fine.

Hope it helps
Chris.

So.... there's a workaround for this and it works for you? If so, I can close this, correct?

Since this doesn't seem entirely dependent upon RichTextFX and since you've posted your workaround, I'm closing this. Please reopen if it seems appropriate.
