input methods can consume KeyEvent and MotionEvents even without explicit focus
override onKeyDown, onKeyUp and onGenericMotionEvent

Hi, I have already use IME, still can’t create Trigger for DPAD, but I can create Action for DPAD, what am I wrong? Or can’t do such thing?

Sorry for not clarifying. I haven't implemented this issue yet and you can create a "key" action for the DPAD because Key Mapper uses a different method to detect buttons when you're creating an action. This method only works as long as you're in Key Mapper .
