Tab key press on ComboBoxTool
posted

I have toolbar with lots of tools. I need to hold the tab press. Is there any way to catch tab press. I subscribed to .ToolKeyPress, .ToolKeyDown. I get the messages on any key press, shift press, but no Tab key. 

Any way out?

Thanks in advance!

    The editor tools do not accept the tab key because it is used for navigation. You can determine when tab is pressed by overriding ProcessKeyPreview on your Form and seeing when the message is WM_KEYUP and the WParam is (int)Keys.Tab.
