SpecialKeyboardBuffering (Magic xpa 3.x)

When this flag is set Y, keystrokes that cannot be processed immediately will be buffered and sent to the control when it is available. This is relevant for Rich Client tasks and only when you are parked on a modifiable Edit control.

Valid values:

N – No buffering

B – Basic buffering inside an existing editable Label control (This was the behavior up until Magic xpa 2.5c and Magic xpa 3.1 when this setting was set to Y.)

E – Extended buffering. This option forces the engine to accumulate all keystrokes into a buffer when the GUI thread is locked. It will resend these keystrokes when unlocked, thus allowing for a new form to be opened to receive these keystrokes. Keystrokes are characters, Tab, Shift+Tab, CTRL+x, or Alt+x. The following controls might not accept these keystrokes properly:

• Push button

• Combo box

• Radio

• List box

• Subform

• Tab control

Until Magic xpa 2.5c and Magic xpa 3.1, the valid values were Y and N (default).

Default value: N

Since version: 1.9n and 2.4
