Hello,

On some international keyboard settings, right Alt, also knows as Alt-Gr is used to insert national character (Alt-Gr is the same as Alt+Ctrl as far as I know). One of polish charaters is inserted by Alt-Gr+Z, but TX control treats this combination the same as Alt+Z, meaning Undo.
The effect is we cannot insert this special character (neither using Alt-Gr+Z nor using Alt+Ctrl+Z), because it causes Undo action thus removing a part of inserted text.
None other editor has problem with Alt-Gr+Z, because it's something different that Alt+Z. Even when using standard accelerators in VC++ they works corretly, because they distinguish Alt+Z from Alt-Gr+Z (or Alt+Ctrl+Z).
Any solution available?
