    Posted: 08 September 2012 at 3:17pm
Using version 15.3.1. The screen shot in the helpfile for CommandBarsContextMenus Collection shows a context menu with the shortcut (i.e. Ctrl+C). But how do you achieve this?

I thought that KeyBindings was supposed to be a universal approach that would show the shortcut text in RibbonBars, Context Menus / Pop Up Menus, etc. if the ID was the same. But  It appears that the KeyBindings that are assigned show up in RibbonBar but not on Context Menu / Pop Up menu.

If I explicitly set the ShortcutText for a control in the Context Menu, then it will display. But per the help file: This property is obsolete and is not used anymore. Use a combination of TooltipText and ToolbarAccelTips instead.

Am I missing something here or is this a bug?

I thought that would do it too, but it has no affect on popup / context menus.

Here's a snippet of what I'm doing:
CommandBars1.KeyBindings.Add FCONTROL, Asc("X"), ID_EDIT_CUT
CommandBars1.KeyBindings.Add FCONTROL, Asc("C"), ID_EDIT_COPY
CommandBars1.KeyBindings.Add FCONTROL, Asc("V"), ID_EDIT_PASTE
CommandBars1.Options.ShowContextMenuAccelerators = True

The keyboard accelerators used above show up properly in the RibbonBar but not in the popup / context menus.
