Hi everyone,

I have found this in version 1.15, SWT Renderer, after checking the code of the current version, it appears this still may be a problem.

Use-Case:
Navigate with Tab to an enum control;
use keyboard to change selection by pressing the first letter of some enum value;
press tab again to navigate further.

The value in the combo remains as selected, but the value in model is not updated.
If Enter key is pressed before the tab, value is updated.

Can someone confirm this behavior in the current version? I have a workaround I am testing at the moment, will report if it causes any negative side effects.

Cheers,
Nikola
