What is the JavaFX KeyCode for the character: ` ?



I have tried searching KeyCode and the only candidate I see is "BACK_QUOTE", but that seems to correspond to À according to this (probably an encoding issue).



System.out.println ( KeyCode.BACK_QUOTE.getChar() );


In either case, I don't think that represents ` and I can't find any other candidates.



KeyCode.getKeyCode( "`" )


returns null, so that's wierd.

          When listening for KeyEvent.KEY_PRESSED events it gives me KeyCode.BACK_QUOTE as the code when I press the ` key.



          // Prints BACK_QUOTE
          primaryStage.addEventFilter(KeyEvent.KEY_PRESSED, event -> System.out.println(event.getCode()));


          If I listen to KeyEvent.KEY_TYPED events the character is ` when I type `.



          // Prints `
          primaryStage.addEventFilter(KeyEvent.KEY_TYPED, event -> System.out.println(event.getCharacter()));


          However, I also get À from KeyCode.BACK_QUOTE.getChar(). I'm not sure why there's an inconsistency, but it appears the KeyCode for ` is BACK_QUOTE.
