I am trying to create a mask in a EditField to format fields while typing.
The format would be "(XX) XXXX - XXXX" for a phone number
I have used WhenAction() "<<=", but when press backspace, delete or arrows (left and right), the cursor's position goes away.
Then I tried to override the Ctrl's Key and filter that keys but they seem to not accept K_BACKSPACE or K_DELETE.

Would be great a function like SetFilter(). "SetMask()"?!
It would be usefull for EditDate too. "XX/XX/XXXX"
