Keyboard-Shortcuts

edited December 2008 in General
Hi,

I installed RB 11.02 (Enterprise) for Delphi 2006 and recompiled a
application. When I open a report in the designer, the shortcuts (like
CTRL-X, CTRL-V etc.) don't seem to work. As far as I can see, none of
the controls (comboboxes for datapipelines or fieldnames) seem to react
to keyboard input. Am I doing something wrong?

Regards,
Walter Schrewe

    The cut, copy, paste shortcuts are working in my testing here. To use them
    on the layout area, make sure it has focus by clicking on the layout area or
    any of the controls in it. The cut, copy, paste shortcuts also work on the
    edit box in the toolbar and in the edit boxes on the object inspector -
    again they work when those controls have keyboard focus.

    RB 11 (and RB 10) use a theme based control library. The comboboxes do not
    currently support keyboard lookup - this is something we are researching.

    Hello Nard,

    that is exactly what I did, but in my environment it does definitely not
    work. After a CTRL-C on a (focused) control the corresponding menu item
    stay grayed out. Cut, copy and paste work only when they are activated
    by clicking on the appropriate menu item.

    Perhaps you have a 3rd party Delphi add-on installed that is capturing the
    key strokes. They definitely work.

    the only ones I could think of are the TB2000-Components (the same you
    use). Interestingly enough the shortcuts work in the RAP Code editor.

    I just tested a application, compiled with RB 10.08, where all shortcuts
    in the designer work perfectly well. The rest of the environment (3rd
    party components, Delphi 2006 prof.) is identical.
