EventKey not being emitted on Windows when Backspace or Arrow Keys Are Pressed #1025

Closed john01dav closed 4 years ago

john01dav commented 4 years ago

I'm trying to implement a cross-platform terminal, based on gtk::TextView,and I'm basically done but there's a problem. On Windows, connect_key_press_event does not emit an event when backspace or enter is pressed, which is highly problematic as backspace is an essential part of a working terminal. Backspace is emitted correctly on Linux.

Additionally, arrow keys do not emit the event on Linux or Windows. I'm not sure if this is an upstream GTK bug, or a GTK-rs bug, but it seems reasonable to start here as I'm using GTK-rs.

The best place to ask such generic GTK questions would be https://discourse.gnome.org
