SCMU: Cannot enter / or _ in Service Account Name / Password

[stediefan]

Describe the bug

Description

In Service Control Management, while adding a new Instance - I am not able to type neither dashes nor underscores in the Service Account Section (Account Name and Password Field). The Key instead checks or unchecks the Checkbox for the Expansion Panels Service Control (Audit).

Not sure if this is relevant: I use a German QWERTZ Keyboard.

Expected behavior

The inputs should work as expected.

Actual behavior

Characters are not typed.

Versions

Tested in Version 5.0.3 of Service Control Management

Please list the version of the relevant packages or applications in which the bug exists.

Steps to reproduce

• Open Service Control Management.
• Open Wizard to add a new Instance
• Try to type dash or underscore in the listed input boxes.

Relevant log output

No response

Additional Information

Workarounds

Copy and Paste of the strings works fine.

Possible solutions

Additional information

German QWERTZ Keyboard Layout was used.

I can confirm that I cannot enter all special characters in the "Service account" and "Password" fields with both NL and US keyboard layouts and I also cannot enter -, +, and =.

However, as a workaround it seems possible to paste these characters from the clipboard. (workaround was already listed). Another workaround might be to use Powershell.

After researching this issue it appears this is a default behavior of WPF and the checkboxes need be explicitly modified so that they don't handle the + and - keydown events. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49213841/prevent-wpf-checkbox-from-checking-unchecking-with-the-keys
