Description

Using a French keyboard, on a French Windows Seven 64 bits , all keys involving the combination <Alt Gr> + something are not producing any character in object inspector

for instance, to access the EURO sign (?), key combination is
<Alt Gr> + <E>. In the main (pascal) editor, the combination is working. However, in object inspector, this combination will not operate

NOTE: The issue occur not only in object inspector, but in almost ALL fields where text need to be entered, but the source code editor. Example: in the commit comment of subversion, same problem ....

Steps to Reproduce:

New project

go in source edit window

hit <Alt Gr> + <E> key combination:

expected ?, got ?

go to object inspector,

select Caption property of the form

hit <Alt Gr> + <E> key combination:
