blabore Posted August 11, 2003 Posted August 11, 2003 On my form controls, the hot keys are not visible until I hit the ALT button. Is it possible to make them visible all the time? Any help would be appreciated. Quote -Ben LaBore
*Experts* Volte Posted August 11, 2003 *Experts* Posted August 11, 2003 This is the default Windows XP (maybe 2000) behaviour. That's the way it's meant to be, and I doubt you'll be able to change it without going to extensive trouble. Quote
blabore Posted August 12, 2003 Author Posted August 12, 2003 Thanks for the reply. Is this for .Net only? In VB6 the hot keys were always visible, at least on my Wink2k machine. Quote -Ben LaBore
*Gurus* divil Posted August 12, 2003 *Gurus* Posted August 12, 2003 Yes, VB6 didn't adhere to operating system standards when it drew controls so you'll see those shortcuts all the time. The correct behaviour now is to only see them when the user has actually hit the Alt key. Quote MVP, Visual Developer - .NET Now you see why evil will always triumph - because good is dumb.
