The search textbox on the package chooser page needs the same fix.
It's not immediately clear to me how to do this, since I don't know
what the default pushbutton should be while the user is typing in the
search box.
One possibility is to convert the label "Search" to the left of the
box to a SEARCH pushbutton, whose effect is to call OnTimerMessage().
If we make this the default, then pressing Enter will cause the
search filter to immediately take effect, which is probably what the
user expects.
It seems a bit weird to have a button which automatically pushes itself
half a second after you finish typing.
Attached is my attempt, which (ab)uses an invisible button.
I agree, this is better than my version.
Something like the attached? This might not be quite right, because
the previous default button is never restored. I'm not sure how
important that is.
I think it's something that should be done, if possible, so I added that.
In my testing, 'Next' does indeed become the default button after I
click outside of the textbox, but there's no visual indication of this.
The MSDN page for DM_SETDEFID
(https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms645413(v=vs.85).aspx)
mentions a different situation where button highlighting doesn't
accurately reflect the default button. In that case it suggests sending
a BM_SETSTYLE message to change the border style.
I looked at the documentation for BM_SETSTYLE, but it wasn't obvious to
me what do do.
