Flash games and keyboards inputs in version 31.4.0

Unread post by Matrix4348 » 2022-11-27, 16:38

Hello,

In Pale Moon version 31.4.0, using certain keys on Flash games also affects the rest of the browser (arrow keys will scroll, backspace will load the previous page). This happens on every Flash games, but here is one if needed: http://andkon.com/arcade/adventureactio ... rsupdated/
This is most likely due to "We no longer fire keypress events for non-printable keys" (whatever this means...) as setting dom.keyboardevent.keypress.dispatch_non_printable_in_content to "true" solves the issue.
Is this behaviour intended?

This should get fixed in the upcoming 31.4.1
