I have some buttons in my Silverlight 2 app that I want the user to access from the keyboard.
If I understand correctly, I should be able to use AutomationProperties.AccessKey. For example:
<Button Content='Close' Name='btnClose' AutomationProperties.AccessKey='CTRL+Q' HorizontalAlignment='Left' /> But I can’t get this to work? What am I doing wrong?
Unfortunately SL doesn’t handle the AccessKey (or AcceleratorKey) properties directly. This means you still have to trap KeyDown events in your application and activate functionality there. From what I can tell the only advantage of setting the AccessKey/AcceleratorKey properties is to notify your intent to screen readers and the like.
