Hello

Is there any way of localizing the Ctrl, Shift and Alt part of the shortcut key text?

I have tried using the SetKeyNameText method but this only appears to alter the actual keystroke text. I still get "Ctrl+" at the beginning of the string. For example if I use:

SetKeyNameText(int('O'), _bstr_t(_T("Hello")));

I get displayed in the menu "Ctrl+Hello".

On a German keyboard "Ctrl" is instead called "Strg". Therefore I would like the shortcut text in the above example to be "Strg+Hello".

Is this possible?

Thanks
Mark

In 9.81 it works:

//#define VK_CONTROL 0x11

SetKeyNameText(VK_CONTROL, _bstr_t(_T("Strg")));

SetKeyNameText(int('O'), _bstr_t(_T("Hello")));
