Remarks
Unlike the ComponentEditorContainer.EditorKeyDown event, the EditorKeyPress event is only raised in response to pressing a character key. Note that pressing a character key raises both the ComponentEditorContainer.EditorKeyDown and EditorKeyPress events. If you continue to depress the key, the events will be triggered repeatedly with a short interval
After a key is released, the ComponentEditorContainer.EditorKeyUp event is fired.
Key press events are fired in the following order:
- ComponentEditorContainer.EditorKeyDown
- EditorKeyPress (only for alpha-numeric keys)
- ComponentEditorContainer.EditorKeyUp
