Doesn't work key simulation ( send_keys )

See original GitHub issue

Winium.Desktop v.1.6.0 Selenium v.3.0.2 Python v.3.4.4

Using examples from Wiki and habrahabr article:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver import ActionChains
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
import time

driver = webdriver.Remote(
    command_executor='http://localhost:9999',
    desired_capabilities={
        "debugConnectToRunningApp": 'false',
        "app": r"C:/windows/system32/notepad.exe"
    })

time.sleep(0.5)
window = driver.find_element_by_class_name('Notepad')
text_field = window.find_element_by_class_name('Edit')

text_field.click()
text_field.send_keys('Some text{ENTER}{ENTER}')

actions = ActionChains(driver)
actions.send_keys('Another text{ENTER}')
actions.send_keys('^{o}')
actions.perform()

ActionChains(driver).key_down(Keys.CONTROL).send_keys('o').key_up(Keys.CONTROL).perform()
ActionChains(driver).key_down('\ue009').send_keys('o').key_up('\ue009').perform()

Result: “Some text{ENTER}{ENTER}Another text{ENTER}^{o}oo” Keys simulation does not work.

Is it bug or i do something wrong? If the second, what exactly wrong?

By updating below code in KeyboardModifiers.cs class, will allow you to use Enter key Winium.Desktop.Driver\Input\KeyboardModifiers.cs internal class KeyboardModifiers : List<string> { #region Static Fields

    private static readonly List<string> Modifiers = new List<string>
