If I create a Windows Forms .Net 4.8 project in Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2022 (64-bit) Version 17.10.1, then click into the Properties pane to modify a property, such as the “Text” property of the form, I can use the Backspace key to remove characters from the Text property, but if I press the Delete key on the keyboard, nothing happens, whether I have the cursor at the beginning, middle, or end of the property value, and whether or not I have highlighted any text in the property value.
This also occurs within Collection editors, such as the ListViewItem Collection editor.
NOTE that I am editing String properties, so they should support the Delete key if they support the Backspace key.
Is the Delete key intentionally disabled, or is this a bug?
Maybe nobody else uses the Delete key, but sometimes it makes sense to use it based on cursor position, and I automatically press it out of habit.
Can anyone explain why this happens and/or how to fix it?
