As written,
Backstage
will attach to theKeyDown
event of the owning window but later detach from thePreviewKeyDown
event. This creates a memory leak where theBackstage
instance (and everything else referenced from it) will be kept in memory for as long as the owning window, via theKeyDown
event. In our application the appearance of the main window changes according to which mode the application is in, with the ribbon control part of the visual tree in only one of these modes. In this (perhaps slightly unusual) setup, simply opening the backstage will cause the application to leak memory. This PR aims to solve this problem by detaching from theKeyDown
event inRestoreParentProperties
as was, presumably, the original intent.
