    ntc is not exactly correct. OS does not use reflection to get your base class’ handler.

    If you return false, you explicitly tell OS that you do not want to handle this event; OS calls the View’s parent handler then (as your test shows); this happens until event got handled or top View is reached.

    If you call super.OnKeyDown() you allow your base class to process event. Note that it’s a base class’ handler serving same view, not parent view; don’t confuse here.

    So, using one or the other depends on your view’s behavior desired.

    I supose in your case you need return super.onKeyDown();
