User (Legacy) Posted December 2, 2004 Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 The Windows.Forms.MenuItem class has a nice way to set up a shortcut for menu commands (ie. MenuItem.Shortcut). This not only sets up the link between the keyboard shortcut and the corresponding menu command, it also draws the shortcut as right aligned text in the menu window for the corresponding menu command. Is there a way to do this with the ChartFx menus? I haven't found anything to suggest it's possible. Any help greatly appreciated. -Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

User (Legacy) Posted December 2, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 Oops, more info that might be useful... 1. I'm using the ChartFx context menus (as opposed to suppressing them and creating my own). 2. I want to this for both built in ChartFx commands as well as user commands I'm adding to the ChartFx context menus. -Peter "peter z" <pzaborski@nospam.slb.com> wrote in message news:WHKk9QK2EHA.3492@webserver3.softwarefx.com... > Sorry, forgot to include my system info: > > Win 2000 Pro > ChartFX.dll assembly version 6.2.1342.0 > > -Peter > > > "peter z" <pzaborski@nospam.slb.com> wrote in message > news:V8PVrPK2EHA.1120@webserver3.softwarefx.com... > > The Windows.Forms.MenuItem class has a nice way to set up a shortcut for > > menu commands (ie.

Software FX Posted December 4, 2004 Report Share Posted December 4, 2004 We do not support Shortcut keys in Chart FX's menus. The main reason we did not add this feature is that our menus are not "top-level". We a re a control inside a form that may have many other controls (including more than one chart) therefore we don't "own" the keyboard as a top level menu/form does. -- FP Software FX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
