Question

I have a RichTextBox in .NET WinForms. I have been hooking up hot keys with KeyUp. Everything is working fine, except for CtrlI. By the time my handler gets its turn, the selection has been replaced with a ‘\t’. I turned off ShortcutsEnabled, but it didn’t make any difference. Any ideas?

Do it like this:

using System; using System.Windows.Forms;  public class MyRtb : RichTextBox {   protected override bool ProcessCmdKey(ref Message m, Keys keyData) {     if (keyData == (Keys.I | Keys.Control)) {       // Do your stuff       return true;     }     return base.ProcessCmdKey(ref m, keyData);   } }
