13.2.1

In my ribbon application I press ALT to view the access keys. In menus with labels, the labels have access keys too. Perhaps this is by design, but if you ask me this makes no sense. The label is not a command, so why would I want to trigger it?

Hi,

So why you set access keys for labels then ?

I don't. Your code does this automatically :(

ID_BLABLA "No access key"

void CMainFrame::OnInitCommandsPopup(CXTPPopupBar* pPopupBar)

{

...

pControls->Add(xtpControlLabel, ID_BLABLA); // Access key will be present.

...

}

XTP 13.2.1. Just tested it.

Solved:

pControlLabel->SetFlags(xtpFlagSkipFocus);

xtpFlagSkipFocus is not good enough. I want some entries to be focusable by keyboard, but NOT assigned access keys when pressing ALT. This behavior makes sense when you have some 100 entries in a menu and don't want ALT to bloat your screen with 100 squares with access key-combinations!

What to do? This is not possible with 13.4.1.
