What is supposed to happen in an EditField if you return True in a KeyDown event? I was expecting that the EditField would then pass the KeyDown event up to it's parent control, or to the window it is in, but it doesn't. Also if you press a key that the EditField cannot handle (such as a Function Key or Control Key) the same thing happens, whether you return True or not.
When you return true in an event it means that your code(if any) is the sole handler of the event. In other words, the only thing that will happen or not happen when the event fires is the functionality defined in your code. It's like: the buck stops here.
