    Description

      When predictions of Windows On-Screen Keyboard are used, returned values of KeyEvents seem a bit of, example app by customer shows it. When I type 't' 'o' 'r' and then click the prediction of 'tornadoes', I get following output:

        

      text() :t	 key() :Key_T	 nSC() :20	 nVK() :84
      text() :o	 key() :Key_O	 nSC() :24	 nVK() :79
      text() :r	 key() :Key_R	 nSC() :19	 nVK() :82
      text() :n	 key() :Key_N	 nSC() :0	 nVK() :231
      text() :a	 key() :Key_N	 nSC() :0	 nVK() :231
      text() :d	 key() :Key_N	 nSC() :0	 nVK() :231
      text() :o	 key() :Key_N	 nSC() :0	 nVK() :231
      text() :e	 key() :Key_N	 nSC() :0	 nVK() :231
      text() :s	 key() :Key_N	 nSC() :0	 nVK() :231
      text() : 	 key() :Key_N	 nSC() :0	 nVK() :231
      

       
      key() seems to return the first character of the predicted word for every char. Scan code is 0 for every char (I think that this might be correct?) and VirtualKey is VK_PACKET (is this correct?)
