[Bug 513312] Re: [1.1.x] Invalid key code when ":" included in a string with type() --- request: should be possible

 

Really strange, I worked around the issue by using openApp instead of using the Run window, but now it fails _earlier_ when I want it to open the File menu in our application (German: Datei) by using "type('d', KeyModifier.ALT)" with the message:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Key: Not supported character: d

I have no clue what is causing this and why and when it happens. And I
don't want to work around every key combo as in this case it's one of
the points of testing, if the menu responds to key combos. Is there a
limit how big a script can be?

Any ideas on how to debug it?
