In a WPF application, I have a control that I have derived from TextBox like this:

public class SelectableTextBlock : TextBox
{
    protected override void O

I had this issue with spaces and events once in a textbox. Are the events NOT triggered only when you add or remove a space character?

This is what I got as an answer: (http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/wpf/thread/446ec083-04c8-43f2-89dc-1e2521a31f6b)

Because some IMEs will treat whitespace keystroke as part of the text composition process, that's why it eats up by Avalon to report correct composited text through TextInput event.

I could be completely out of the scope but reading this thread emmideatly made me think of that issue I once had.

Kind regards, Wim
