Capture combination key event in a Windows Forms application
When the user presses the Shift + UP keys, I开发者_高级运维 want my form to respond by calling up a message box.
How do I do this in Windows Forms?
Handle the KeyDown
event and have something like:
if (e.Modifiers == Keys.Shift && e.KeyCode == Keys.Up)
{
MessageBox.Show("My message");
}
The event handler has to be on the Main Form and you need to set the KeyPreview
property to true
. This can be done in design mode from the properties dialog.
In case you want to use multiple modifiers KeyEventArgs
also has boolean values to indicate if CTRL, ALT or SHIFT is pressed.
Example:
private void Form1_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Control && e.Alt && e.Shift && e.KeyCode == Keys.F12)
MessageBox.Show("My message");
}
In this example the messagebox is show if CTRL, ALT, SHIFT and F12 are pressed at the same time.
To handle multiple modifiers keys ( In KeyDown event)
if (e.Control && e.Shift)
{
if (e.KeyCode == Keys.F1)
{
// Your code goes here
}
}
