The normal keys down count is zero?



Q. I get the following warning every time I press the Tab key in my
   MSG_META_KBD_CHAR handler for my VisText class:

     WARNING_NORMAL_KEYS_DOWN_COUNT_BEING_ZERO_BEFORE_DECREMENT

   I am filtering out the tab keys and handling them specially.

A. If you don't @callsuper when flag is CF_FIRST_PRESS, but @callsuper
   when it is released, VisText is going to complain because it is
   keeping count of the number of keys pressed at the same time. This
   warning is being taken out in newer versions of the Nokia 9000i.
