Mac OS Sierra type() command issues

Asked by TestMechanic

We are experiencing issues with type() command under Mac OS Sierra.

-- while typing accent menu appear - see https://support.apple.com/library/APPLE/APPLECARE_ALLGEOS/Product_Help/en_US/PUBLIC_USERS/PL124/S0120_AccentMenu.png

-- typing actually miss some chars. For example typing "test" results in "tt" - https://www.screencast.com/t/xL79S0JK

-- typing doesn't fire onKeyUp event in some fields(typing manually fires events)

Please note that we do not have above issues with El Capitan and Yosemite Mac OS versions. We tried latest nightly Sikuli build as well. Java versions we are using is 1.8.121(latest)

seems to be a bug with Java 8 and macOS 10.12

No idea currently. Needs some eval and search.

paste() works, if that helps for now.

Can you help with this problem?
