Hi, Currently, when we create a multi-lined Text widget (with a SWT.MULTI style) and press enter or enter + shift, the TraversalEvent (SWT.TRAVERSE_RETURN) is produced but for both cases the doit value is set to false. In my opinion the more desirable behavior would be if doit value is set to true when user presses shift + enter, and false when user presses enter (which is indeed the behavior of a StyledText widget). --- Repro steps: 1. Create the Text widget in the following way: Text text = new Text(myShell, SWT.MULTI); text.setText("Sample text"); text.addTraverseListener(new TraverseListener () { public void keyTraversed(TraverseEvent e) { System.out.println(e.detail + " " + e.doit); } }); 2. Run the application. 3. Press enter + shift. 4. Press enter. 5. Notice that in both cases the doit value is false.
