CEF Forum

hi
I coded program using JCEF with Swing.
I want to detect any key pressing and show it in console.
So made a custom class implements CefKeyboardHandler and override onKeyEvent like it below.

Code: Select all

public class KeyboardHandler implements CefKeyboardHandler {
   @Override
   public boolean onKeyEvent(CefBrowser browser, CefKeyEvent event) {
      System.out.println("key pressed : " + event.character);
   }
}


It can show key character in console EXCEPT tab key.
I assume web page don't throw tab key pressed event to JCEF properly.
How can I solve this?

Thank you

The key event also provides a key type and not only a character. You can implement an additional logic for tabs. Also you should be able to capture all key presses from the swing component as well.
