Thanks for the heads-up on the commandKeyDown handler. I've actually already got that in place, and my software doesn't really use fields so I think it should be good. If it isn't I'll more than likely see it in testing. On 4/20/2016 2:20 PM, Peter M. Brigham wrote: On Apr 20, 2016, at 1:45

OK - so the software is for drawing 'links' around parts of a picture so when they're clicked the software plays audio files, among other things. The links are listed in the data grid. I've already got a traditional menu bar at the top of the screen but instead of requiring the user to select

Peter - many thanks for your thoughts here! I believe the answer is to just manually include the "...ctrl+A" in the menu item. The limitation with this solution is I can't 'right justify' the keyboard shortcut part of the menu item. Thus, other menu items which have sub menus show the r

Can't Display Keyboard Shortcuts in Popups

2016-04-20 Thread Ray
I'm unable to popup a button as a contextual menu and show keyboard shortcuts. For example, I'd like users to see "Audio ctrl+A", not just "Audio". The button's style is "menu" and the button's contents for that line is "Audio/A". The "Audio ctrl+A" displays fine as long as the button's
