A form keyhandler would also be useful in validating controls on tab/focus. I guess it creates event spam, and so there is good reason to avoid it, but a form property that defaults to disabled, but allows keyboard preview and/or control focus events could be helpful.
Not that it helps in your case, but my validation needs can be handled by a timer that can make good interfaces with workarounds, but are unusual. One way I'd look into for your issue is adding a button to the debug form and setting its accelerator key. ----- Original Message ----- From: Henry Rich <[email protected]> To: Programming forum <[email protected]> Cc: Sent: Saturday, May 9, 2015 11:58 AM Subject: [Jprogramming] Can a non-isidraw form intercept ctrl-J? I want a window (in particular, the Debug window) to treat ctrl-J as a Lab Advance. But the window doesn't have an isidraw or isigraph control. Is there any way to hook a control key in such a case?
