CwCheat Support

Is it just me and my setup, or is there some bug or missing code affecting the enabling of game cheats through the ingame PPSSPP menus ?

Today I've been testing some cheats I found for Final Fantasy 3 = NPJH50626, and for a long time I suspected that the cheats were faulty, as even the simplest of them (eg: Max Gil) seemed to have no effect. But as I repeatedly tried to activate them with varied ways of navigating the menus, I finally discovered that these cheats do work fine. But PPSSPP will only activate the cheats when navigating the menus by one of the several ways available.

As you know there are several ways of exiting from PPSSPP submenus and also from its main ingame menu and back to the game itself.

1: We can simply press 'Esc' key on keyboard to back out of a menu
2: We can use the gamepad button defined for 'backing'
3: We can use mouse to click on the "Back" or "Continue" buttons on screen

Apparently the cheat activation only happens if the 3rd of these methods is used.

Whenever I use the gamepad buttons or keyboard keys to back out after setting some cheats active, the cheats are NOT activated, even though their new activated state IS saved to the ".ini" file for the game's cheats.

As yet I've only tested this with the Windows version of the emulator, currently using v0.9.1-499, but I suspect it's the same for the other platforms and the newer builds, since their build comments indicate nothing to do with this issue.
