I have a normal textbox in my application.
I can paste data to it using my mouse (Right click -> Paste), but the shortcut Ctrl+V does nothing.
How do I fix that?
Make sure that yourTextBox.ShortcutsEnabled is set to true.
This behavior is enabled by default, so the question is rather what your code does to prevent it. Do you have any KeyDown/KeyUp/KeyPress event handlers that may intercept the CTRL+V keystrokes?
Similar issue in How do I allow CTRL-V (Paste) on a Winforms Textbox?
To quote Sandeep:
It is because in the aplliciation ctrl+v shortcut was already
defined(Edit menu-> Paste). After removing this...it work fine for
me....Hope that it helps....

good day
I must add a button in the ribbon bar only for few specific mailitem,
i use this attribute to change the visibility.
getVisible="EnableControl"
and i use
IRibbonUI UIrib.Invalidate();
to update the ribbon, there is an event that run when i change focused ispector, so i can check if the button must be displaied or not
or a totally different way to do do this control?
Thanks for your support.
Best regards
You could refer to the link below: Switch focus to Outlook active window .
If you can't solve your problem, please let me know and I can give you a solution.
Whenever Application.Inspectors.NewInspector event fires, call IRibbonUI.Invalidate. Outlook will invoke all button state callbacks, including the getVisible callback.
I am developing an app in C# with Visual Studio using Windows Forms
I have a ComboxBox and I would like to enable the Ctrl+C shortcut.
Right now it does not work (the selected text is simply not copied to the clipboard)
With a TextBox I simply need to set ShortcutEnabled to true, but this property does not seem to exist for ComboBox
Appearently it is what the guy in there tries to do but I don't undersand what he means.
MSDN does not elaborate much on how to do..
Shall I try to manually catch the shortcut in the
private void mycomboboxname_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
method ?
That seems to me like an overkill... I looked here but did not understood it well (I can't find the IsEditable property when designing the form)
Any ideas welcome...
Hans Passant answer is right.
The key presses were simply intercepted (and prevented somewhere else in my code).
I am able to catch the right click of the mouse but i want to catch RIGHT CLICK + COPY/PASTE event
I tried to search on net but unable to get a single proper answer.
I've found some useful hints in an other post:
If you want to handle the Paste operation yourself, before it even
happens, you will have to intercept the WM_PASTE message to the text
box. One way of doing is would be by creating a specialized control.
You can find the code here
Question is not clear to me
If you will add specifics I will try and help
I do what may be what you are asking with ContextMenu
This is cut, but you would use Paste
CopyToDigest would be your custom handler
CommandBindings.Add(new CommandBinding(ApplicationCommands.Cut, CopyToDigest, CopyToDigestOK));
I got it from the book Pro WPF by McDonnald
I am developing the Internet Explorer Toolbar in c#.net using the band objects.
Now in my toolbar, I am using the textbox field to make the search enable, but in this textbox field, I am not able to use the backspace, delete, arrow keys and many other such button.
I am not sure about y I am not able to use this. Please help me about this. I found many question posted over like this, but none of them was having the specific answer.
Thanks
The problem is that the browser is eating the events for those keystrokes, so the solution is to force focus to the toolbar when the text box receives focus.
To fix it add this line to your toolbar's constructor:
yourTextBox.GotFocus += (sender, args) => OnGotFocus(args);
Also make sure you have implemented TranslateAcceleratorIO() per this example.
Compare your code to this one and see what's missing.
I have several textboxes on a windows form.
I can't paste text into any of them using CTRL-V, though I can still right click and select paste. This is pretty annoying.
I have tried this with the form's KeyPreview as both true and false. TextBox.ShortcutsEnabled is also true.
Check to see if you have a menu on the form with a shortcut for Ctrl-V.
The following code should help:
private void textBox1_KeyUp(object sender, KeyEventArgs e) {
if (e.KeyData == Keys.V && e.Modifiers == Keys.Control)
(sender as Textbox).Paste();
}
The code you posted has nothing to do with your Ctrl + V problem, that is for certain. Not much else I can tell you unless you post some more code.
Special code should not be needed for Ctrl + V, but one guess I have is to make sure you have YourTextBoxId.ShortcutsEnabled set to True.
Yeah.. I know this is answered but I thought I'd throw my 2cents in just for fun. I also had a similar problem. Setting the TextBox.ShortcutsEnabled value to True did nothing for me. I was surprised to see the note left by Microsoft here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.textboxbase.shortcutsenabled.aspx regarding this issue. Quite interesting to say the least.
Given that, I just implemented the functionality through the key even handlers as indicated in the post by Webleeuw.
I was also going thru with the same problem. after a lot of googling finally I found the solution. It is because in the aplliciation ctrl+v shortcut was already defined(Edit menu-> Paste). After removing this...it work fine for me....Hope that it helps....
The TextBox control does not support the CTRL+A shortcut key when the Multiline property value is true.
Go to properties for the control:
Properties>Behaviour>Shortcuts Enabled = true
job done - will now accept default windows shortcut strokes for this control
Go to TextBox Properties->Behavior->Allow Drop SET TRUE.
You can comment already assigned same shortcut to other control, from designer.cs/.vb form of your form.
In my case I solved it for menu in following way
//this.copyToolStripMenuItem.ShortcutKeys = ((System.Windows.Forms.Keys)
((System.Windows.Forms.Keys.Control | System.Windows.Forms.Keys.C)));
