Re: Keystroke handling

the "On Losing Focus" event fires as a "result" of another object taking its focus way. is the default button focusable? I don't think you can write generic code without knowing the next/previous object in entry order. also, keystrokes are not the only way to edit text, it can be drag and

although it's true that DOCX files are created using the zip algorithm, you can't just zip a folder and change it's fie extension; that's not how it works. to prove that point, you could change the extension of a valid DOCX to ZIP, zip it back, and change it's extension back to DOCX. it's now a

the difference between system vs embedded is more significant on Windows, but in general, if a JS/CSS/HTML feature is missing, there should be a decent polyfill to cover that. the embedded engine is CEF on v16 64-bit, not the somewhat outdated version of WebKit, which generally delivers
