Strangely, I am not able get any response from Ctrl-TAB, which is essential to tab out of a text widget.

Looking with the inspector, it looks like it SHOULD do what I need, but it appears that the keyboard event does not get there.

How can I get a transcript output for every detected keyboard event? I suspect that maybe something system-wide in MacOS is intercepting the event.

At high level, do

KMLog setDebug

(and get a transcript open)

to stop it, do

KMLog removeDebug.

(This will give you Keymapping behavior, but remember that: any app can add a key processing on a morph instance manually, and that many morphs have hardwired shortcuts such as navigation keys)

At a lower level, you can trace or add a watchpoint inside:

HandMorph>>#generateKeyboardEvent:

Use that if you don't see your ctrl+tab at the Keymapping level.

Thanks.

I added some logging statements to HandMorph>>#generateKeyboardEvent: and they show that this method is not run at all for Ctrl-Tab keyDown events.

But it is run for Ctrl-Tab  keyUp events, and it returns a keyEvent for those.

It does not look like there is a OS level shortcut override for Ctrl-Tab, since it works correctly, in Safari for example (switch tabs).

Could it be a bug in the VM? I am running the Pharo 4.0 release VM and image.

Can anyone else running MacOS can confirm that Ctrl-TAB works for them in Pharo?
