Description
Current Behavior
Currectly custom SearchBar does not support Keyboard Events.
I found out this issue while working with Terminal Logs.
Desired Behavior
It should support keyboard events
Implementation
Adding OnKeyDown property in sistent custom Searchbar as well as on StyledSearchBar.
In below video first I used sistent searchbar (which was not handling pressing keys like Enter). Then I implemented searchbar I created and it worked fine.
