Description Thomas Singer CLA 2022-01-06 10:16:54 EST
Combo accepts only Cmd+X/C/V/A in sendKeyEvent while in Text Cmd+<other-modifier>+X/C/V/A are allowed. In other words, in a Text control you can press Ctrl+Cmd+A to select all, Shift+Cmd+C to copy or Alt+Cmd+V to paste. I recommend to reuse the code from Combo in Text's sendKeyEvent implementation.
