I was refered to this thread. I have a checkbox centered by wraping it with a container and I have the same key board action problem as mentioned here. I tried to add code in keypress as you suggested here. However, the keypress does not get fired at all. I added my centered checkbox through addobject method in column's init(). It works fine with mouse but not key board. Any idea what I did wrong? Thanks.
