Ctrl+Z with caps lock on not working in Chrome
Hi,
I'm facing a problem when I try to undo/redo a text change inside a text
area or text input. Both Ctrl+Z and Ctrl+Y aren't working properly when caps
lock is on. If I turn off caps lock, it works.
The problem seems to occur only in Chrome. Using Firefox or Safari I did not
have any problems. I also tested in two different OS: Windows and Mac (same
problem in both).
I'm using Chrome version 60.0.3112.90, Flash Player version 26.0.0.151 and
Flex SDK 4.16.0.
Does anyone have an idea of how to solve this problem?

I’m not sure if this is something that should be fixed on Adobe’s end. If they don’t want to fix it, we can change EditManager to accept both charCodes to deal with the difference in Chrome.
Let us know what you hear back from Adobe and create a JIRA if necessary. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX

Yes, you're right. Everything is fine except when Ctrl/Cmd is pressed.

Sure. But when you press the key z with capslock and command/control, the charCode is for the little z rather than the big one. (Or at least it is in all browsers other than Chrome.)
Clearer?

I'm sorry, I think my last message was still confusing. In Chrome, the
charCode of 'z' is 122 and 'Z' is 90, like the other browsers.

No, I meant that for all browsers the charCode of 'z' will be 122 and 'Z'
will be 90. Chrome doesn't display any different value.

The charCodes are not the same.
I just tested in Firefox and it’s 122 with caps lock on.
The Chrome Flash plugin is different and it’s probably dispatching different events.

Hi,
I have not tested the EditManager approach, but dispatching a new event with
the lower case char code solved the problem. I'm not happy with using this
kind of workaround but sometimes it is necessary :)
I just didn't get it why this problem only happens in Chrome, because the
char codes in all browsers are the same. At first, I thought that this was a
Flash Player problem, but the Adobe staff don't think so.
Anyway, thank you all for helping me.

Or just dispatch the desired keyboard event when you see the undesired one.

You can try monkey-patching EditManager like so:
switch(event.charCode)
{
case 122: // small z
case 90: // fixed caps lock problem
/* pre-Argo and on the mac then ignoreNextTextEvent */
if (!Configuration.versionIsAtLeast(10,1) && (Capabilities.os.search("Mac OS") > -1))
ignoreNextTextEvent = true;
if(event.shiftKey){
redo();
event.preventDefault();
} else {
undo();
event.preventDefault();
}
break;
case 121: // small y
case 89: // fixed caps lock problem
ignoreNextTextEvent = true;
redo();
event.preventDefault();
break;

Re: Ctrl+Z with caps lock on not working in Chrome

Thanks for your reply. I did what you suggested but everything seems fine:
caps lock on: Y=89, Z=90
caps lock off: y=121, z=122
I have already confirmed that is not a problem in my code because I was able
to reproduce the problem in the "Text Controls" example running at
http://flex.apache.org/tourdeflex/ (Spark Framework Components > Visual
Components > Text Controls > Text Controls).
The simple code below also presents the same problem:
<?xml version="1.0"?>

xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark">

Re: Ctrl+Z with caps lock on not working in Chrome
Posted by Harbs <ha...@gmail.com>.
Here’s what you can do to help diagnose the problem:
Set a keyDown event handler on the input and examine the event.charCode. Does it change if caps lock is on or off?
(It should be 122 for z and 121 for y.)
Thanks,
