ScintillaNET and shortcuts

[Metzger Michel]

Hi,

I don't if it's the right place to ask, but I have a question about
ScintillaNET.
The version I use is from http://sourceforge.net/projects/scide/.

I want to use ctrl+space to autocomplete an expression (as in Visual
Studio).
I tried to catch the KeyDown event, it doesn't work, even if I call

editor.AddIgnoredKey(Keys.Space, Keys.Control);


And the Scintilla Key event is not used by the windows version.

And when I hit a key with the control modifier, it inserts the control
caracter (ascii code < 32).
ScNotepad has the same behavior.

By the way, Garrett announced a new .NET version last week, is there a
cvs version online ?

Thanks,

Michel

I had difficulties with it as wel, and didn't figure out where it is going wrong.
right now I am keeping "reserved" shortcuts in a list and applying it like:

for (int i = 0; i < DaddyForm.reserved_shortcuts.Count; i++)
{
Shortcut shortcut = (Shortcut) DaddyForm.reserved_shortcuts[i];
this.document.AddIgnoredKey(shortcut);
}
Note however, that if you try to add shortcut that's already assigned, you'll get an exception

hth,

Hmmm. I didn't debug that code all that thourougly when I
wrote it. I'll have to look at it in the new version.

Not yet... The Text handling between .NET in C# and the
native control is proving to be a hassle. That and there
was a Hockey Game Sunday afternoon I had to watch, and
another tonight. (GO FLAMES GO!), so I won't get back to
it for another day or so.
