Check for Esc press

Does anyone have any clever tricks for detecting this? I'm using EVENT_GAME_CAMERA_UI_MODE_CHANGED as a catch all, but I was hoping that since Esc is a special system-only key that it'd have some sort of additional detection.

Where, when, why?
You have RegisterTopLevel to handle ESC, EditBox has an event "OnEscape". And pressing ESC can cause GAME_MENU_SCENE gets shown.

The goal was to make all of the windows of the addon close when Esc is pressed.

In this case my first approach would be:
SCENE_MANAGER:RegisterTopLevel(topLevel, locksUIMode)
Like in AI Research Grid.

One of my UIs I want to ensure the close of is for blueprints, so I did it like so:

SCENE_MANAGER:RegisterTopLevel(CraftStoreFixed_Blueprint_Window, false)

This does close it, but it will not let Esc clear cursor mode anymore. I'm not sure what I'm doing incorrectly.

Add this to the function that fires when the scene pops:

SCENE_MANAGER:ToggleTopLevel(CraftStoreFixed_Blueprint_Window)

From /internalingame/scenes/internalingamescenemanager.lua.html:

Code:

function ZO_InternalIngameSceneManager:ToggleTopLevel(topLevel)

    if(topLevel:IsControlHidden()) then

        self:ShowTopLevel(topLevel)

    else

        self:HideTopLevel(topLevel)

    end

end

That way you can use it to handle showing or hiding. Otherwise you should just be able to use InternalIngameSceneManager:HideTopLevel(CraftStoreFixed_Blueprint_Window) directly (untested).

In order to HideTopLevel you have to RegisterTopLevel (it seems; which makes sense), but if you register it, it breaks Esc being able to get you out of mouse mode. I'm a little confused here.

There were bugs with ESC due to leaking "self" in the past.

I use register/toggle top level for the display/hiding of ESO Master Recipe List and never had a problem using escape to return to game mode.
