1.9.8 Key input: "shift 1" becomes "shift !"

[tatt61880]

[Edit]Not fixed with v2.0.0[/Edit]
Since v1.9.4.

== How to reproduce bug ==
1) Open next scene (which is created with v1.8.5)
[scene]56851[/scene]
2) Try to rotate hinge by pressing "shift 1"

You cannot rotate the hinge by pressing "shift 1" because the key input is dealt as "shift !"
NOTE: My PC is Win7 (32 bit)

Try to re-set "Forward key" etc. You will see the key input is not "shift 1" but "shift !".


I hope this explanation is enough.

My Algodoo 1.9.8 crashes when pressing shift + (2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or 6...). I have Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit.

When I click on something, the following message appears:


If I close Algodoo without clicking on its GUI, i get a small message window called "Exception caught" with the message "Unknown key".

Oh, I didn't noticed that.
With my PC, "shift 5", "shift \", "shift ^", "shift [", "shift ]" crash Algodoo.exe
Same error message appears.

NOTE:
"shift 3", "shift 4", "shift 6" etc is no problem with my PC.
"ctrl shift 5" is even no problem. But "alt shift 5" seems to crash Algodoo.

My PC:
shift crashing starts from shift 2 (shift ")
alt crashing starts from alt 2
alt shift crashing starts from alt shift 2 (shift ")
shift alt crashing starts from shift alt 2

To return to the topic, I can control the hinge by pressing the shift+1 key combination though it shows shift !, but there is a bug:
If you make a key combination with shift, for instance shift 1 (shift !), and after rotating the hinge with shift+1 release shift first, the hinge can be controller by pressing shift only (shift, without 1).

Fixing the SHIFT+1 == ! is not straight forward, since "!" is the only thing I get as input. However, the crash will be fixed.

Thanks! I hope next beta version comes as soon as possible.

And I hope this issue is solved perfectly someday.
