Hi David, I haven't used Pharo on a mac for a while, but I don't
remember experiencing this, though I can't quite picture your
scenario.  Could you provide a screen snapshot?  When you say "it"
disappears, could you clarify what "it" is?

Hi Guys,
Is it only me that sometimes hitting canc/del closes the current window?

It's really annoying, I'm on a mac and I guess it's related to cmd button
because if I click the cmd button afterward, it disappears (until next
time).

I tried also on several macs but the result is the same.

TIA
Davide

Hi Davide & Ben,

I've seen this while using an external keyboard, on a Mac Air laptop (10.11.4 right now), using Pharo 4.  The mac laptop has a key marked 'Delete' which is in the 'backspace' location .e.g two keys above enter/return, it doesn't happen with that key.  It happens with the Del key above the number pad on the external apple keyboard I sometimes use.  I think I've also seen it with a Dell keyboard and can try it with other external keyboards tomorrow.


Its annoying for sure when it surprises you.
