Winforms Menu Item Shortcuts Overriding Default Shortcuts?
Aug 19, 2010In a VB.NET Winforms application, I have a form that contains both a datagridview and a textbox. I have some menu item entries that have shortcuts of Ctrl + X, Ctrl + C, and Ctrl + V that operate on the datagridview. However, these override the default cut, copy, and paste shortcuts for the textbox. How can I make the menu shortcuts only apply when the datagridview has focus?

View 7 RepliesVS 2010 : Remove Shortcuts Contextmenu At Runtime?
Sep 19, 2011Trying to remove shortcuts from a contextmenu at runtime. The shortcuts are added at runtime btw.
Private Sub conmnu_xsyn_PopupOpen(sender.....
conmnu_xsyn_undo.Shortcuts.Add(eShortcut.CtrlZ)

[code]....
This works fine, but now I'm trying to remove them when the contextmenu closes. I've tried several events (popupclose, disposed) , but nothing seems to work. Perhaps someone know how it actually works. The code I use to remove a shortcut is simply:
conmnu_xsyn_undo.Shortcuts.Remove(eShortcut.CtrlZ)
.net - ALT Key Shortcuts Hidden?
Nov 9, 2009I am using VS2008 and creating forms. By default, the underscore of the character in a textbox when using an ampersand is not shown when I run the application. ex. "&Goto Here" is not underlining the G until I press the ALT key.Is there a way to have this underline the text that I put an ampersand in front of when the form/application starts instead of having to have the user press the alt key?

View 1 RepliesIDE Keyboard Shortcuts Disabled
Dec 23, 2009I am trying to assign a keyboard shortcut to a macro but "Press shortcut keys" textbox does not accept input. The "Remove" and "Assign" buttons are disabled. I have a command highlighted and I've tried in all the available "Keyboard Mapping Schemes". I've noticed that on some of the samples on "Modifying Keyboard Shortcuts" there were buttons for creating new mapping schemes. I'm assuming those are a visual studio version prior to mine - maybe 2003. Mine only contains the reset button.

Clipboard Shortcuts On MDI Child Forms?
Jun 2, 2010I have some VB.Net WinForms I imported from VB2005 that are MDI Child forms. In the old project the clipboard shortcuts work (Ctrl-V, etc.) but in the VS2010 project they do not. the ShortCutsEnabled property is true.Any way to get these working again without adding special code to replicate the feature?

I also hook the TextChanged event for dirty logic but I can comment that out also to no avail.

Making Shortcuts For A Text Editor?
Oct 9, 2010So, I was making shortcuts for a text editor I made. The first 3, that I originally included were control-b control-i and control-u for the bold italics and underline. That worked fine. Recently, I added control-s and control-o for save and open. I don't know why, but once I press control-s or control-o once, the control key seems to stay "pressed", so whenever I press just b, u, i, s, or o, they activate the commands. Here's my

Form Application That Launches A Bunch Of Shortcuts?

I can't figure out how to make the switches/arguments into a string so that VB2010 will pass it to the executible cleanly.. Here's what I did, I'm sure it's laughable, but I guess everyone starts somewhere:

Dim MyString As String = ","/CitrixShortcut: (1) /QLaunch "CHCFarm:Citrix Console""
