hotkeys

I have a WPF ComboBox and I want to go to items that start with (for example) "e" in the ComboBox when I type that letter. How? My XAML code: <ComboBox ItemsSource="{Binding Roles}" SelectedValuePath="Id" ItemTemplate="{StaticResource ComboBoxDisplayName}" SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedRole}" Width="150"/> MoominTroll EDIT: I'm guessing you have an ItemTemplate that looks a little like this: <StackPanel> <TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Foo}" /> <TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Bar}" /> </StackPanel> If you want to search on Foo, then try... <ComboBox IsEditable = "True" TextSearch.TextPath =

I'm having the following issue in a WinForms app. I'm trying to implement Hotkeys and I need to process Key messages whenever the control is active, no matter if the focus is on a textbox within that control, etc. Overriding ProcessCmdKey works beautifully for this and does exactly what I want with one exception: If a user presses a key and keeps it pressed, ProcessCmdKey keeps triggering WM_KEYDOWN events. However, what I want to achieve is that the user has to release the button again before another hotkey action would trigger (so, if someone sits on the keyboard it would not cause

I have created an NSStatusBar cocoa application which sits in the system status bar. I want to assign a hotkey so that when pressed it toggles my applications and show the menu. Is this possible?, In my searching and experimenting I have found a few different ways of assigning global hot keys that can be pressed when your application is in the background but I can't find any way to problematically make the menu show. Is this possible?, If anyone thinks a way of assigning a global hotkey is best please post it. Thanks. One of the hotkey tutorials I found was on http://dbachrach.com/blog/2005/11

How do I trigger something when the cursor is within TEXTAREA and Ctrl + Enter is pressed? Using jQuery . Thanks You can use the event.ctrlKey flag to see if the Ctrl key is pressed, something like this: $('#textareaId').keydown(function (e) { if (e.ctrlKey && e.keyCode == 13) { // Ctrl-Enter pressed } }); Check the above snippet here . Yaroslav Yakovlev Actually this one does the trick and works in all browsers: if ((event.keyCode == 10 || event.keyCode == 13) && event.ctrlKey) link to js fiddle Universal solution Supports OS X as well. if ((e.ctrlKey || e.metaKey) && (e.keyCode == 13 || e

As far as I've been able to find out, Windows doesn't offer an API function to tell what application has registered a global hotkey (via RegisterHotkey). I can only find out that a hotkey is registered if RegisterHotkey returns false, but not who "owns" the hotkey. In the absence of a direct API, could there be a roundabout way? Windows maintains the handle associated with each registred hotkey - it's a little maddening that there should be no way of getting at this information. Example of something that likely wouldn't work: send (simulate) a registered hotkey, then intercept the hotkey

I'm trying to register certain hotkeys, but I can't because they are Windows defaults. CTRL+WIN+1 minimizes the current window. I'd like it to do something else. I'd like to completely disable WIN+LEFT/RIGHT. I'm also trying to handle the CTRL+WIN+Arrow in my own virtual desktop manager. zVirtualDesktop This has to be done using c# and Win32 API if necessary. It absolutely cannot use Autohotkey. Every page I find descibes how this can be done with AutoHotKey. I'd post code, but I really don't know where to start. I use Win32 to register hotkeys. I assume there is a way to override them, but I

I found this little piece of code to register an hotkey: [DllImport("user32.dll")] public static extern bool RegisterHotKey(IntPtr hWnd, int id, int fsModifiers, int vlc); protected override void WndProc(ref Message m) { if (m.Msg == 0x0312) MessageBox.Show("Hotkey pressed"); base.WndProc(ref m); } public FormMain() { InitializeComponent(); //Alt + A RegisterHotKey(this.Handle, this.GetType().GetHashCode(), 1, (int)'A'); } It works perfectly, but my problem is I want to use two different shortcuts. I know the second parameter is the id, so I figure I could make a different id and add a new if
