InputNumber: can be cheated in order to enter symbols or letters about primereact HOT 15 OPEN

OK thanks for reporting back.

Nice @FlipWarthog and I will study this. The code seems to be "Dead". I will look at how this can happen.

OK PR submitted.

@AlvaroTKT Can you elaborate on the specific steps you're taking and/or take a screen capture? I assumed you were talking about Alt code but I don't think that's what you mean and in my testing they are properly handled.

No, I wasn't referring to the Alt codes. I've made a gif showing the process in real time and asking the program to detail the keys. Actually, what I do is quickly press the "`" key and then a letter. I can write with preloaded text, and I can do it in an empty input field as you can see.

@AlvaroTKT can you try again with 10.6.3 released today? I made some changes to InputNumber recently around keyboard support. Let us know if it is still happening.

I tested it in my app and in documentation.

It's still happening

Weird i am trying everything to reproduce and can't reproduce it. @FlipWarthog and I are on US based keyboards do you think that makes a difference?

I have a spanish keyboard

I don't know if this could be a key factor, but....

from primereact.

I think it must be because our USA "`" tick key is not triggering this behavior. Can you do me a favor and go here: https://w3c.github.io/uievents/tools/key-event-viewer.html

Press your Accent key and paste the screenshot. Here is my Accent Key.

Here is the screenshot with the results:

I also add a gif with a suite of cases of tick key triggering. tick with consonant, tick with tick and tick with vowel for adding more info

@melloware https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_key

I think we can use virtual keyboards in Windows set to Spanish or another language that has a Dead key for replicating this.

from primereact.

Yeah from what i was reading it said change your Windows Keyboard to Spanish or Italian?

from primereact.

Yup, from the Windows settings you can add a language. Once you have more than one installed it'll add a lang switcher to the taskbar in the bottom right.

This updates your keyboard layout and also updates the on-screen keyboard to match (so you can actually see what they keys are)

I was able to replicate the issue following these steps.

Thanks for the hard work ^^
