Is it possible to create a new key that when clicked sent an Alt-F4 from the Virtual Keyboard?

The ExtendedKey class supports that-
[code]
KeyboardLayout kl = KeyboardLayout.create("D:\\BrowserKeyboard.xml");

ExtendedKey ek = new ExtendedKey();
ArrayList<com.mindfusion.keyboard.Key> list = new ArrayList<>();
list.add(Key.ALT);
list.add(Key.F4);
ek.setKeys(list);
ek.setContent("Close");
kl.getKeys().add(ek);

vkb.setTemplateLayout(kl);
vkb.setMode(KeyboardMode.Custom);[/code]

Unfortunately there's an issue with ExtendedKey XML loading code and can't load its instances from xml template file, only adding from code works at this time. We'll try to fix this next week.

This build should now successfully load ExtendedKey objects from layout files -
