An XXE bug? A Java[tm] bug? Not easy to fix this one...
Since I was able to use keyPressed with other unmodified keys without
getting an insertion when binding them to non-insertion commands, I'd
say that it is an XXE bug. But I don't know anything about the internal
architecture, so maybe it is a Java bug...
A simple and clean workaround is to use:
---
<charTyped char="r"/>
---
instead of:
---
<keyPressed code="R"/>
---
Thank you, I'll do this. Having a workaround makes it less of a bug!
========================
PS: You should remove:
---
<command name="prompt" parameter='XREF "Enter xref ID:"'/>
---
in order to give a try to:
---
<command name="putAttribute" parameter="linkend"/>
---
I tried this, but choose not to do it for two reasons:
1) The dialog that pops up to allow a choice of IDs doesn't allow me to
select one with the mouse. If it included an (automatically focused)
input field with auto-completion, I'd love it. (I guess this is an
RFE). I don't want to take my hands off the keyboard, so I prefered
the prompt command solution
2) I'd like to be able to insert inter-chapter xrefs without having to
formally group all the chapter files together into a book file, and
the dialog presented by putAttribute restricts me to selecting an ID
that is already defined in the current chapter.
Thanks for the workaround!
