Mnemonics in WPF ComboBox

Hi there,

I have a WPF combobox with two values "Male" and "Female". It seems by
default the control supports mnemonics, e.g. if I press "M" on
keyboard, it sets the current ComboBoxItem to "Male"

If I use non-textual items, e.g. images+labels inside ComboBox, is
there a way hardcode such keyboard shortcut for each item?

E.g.

<ComboBox Margin="59,0,66 ,16" Name="comboBox1 " Height="82"
VerticalAlignme nt="Bottom" >
<ComboBoxItem >
<StackPanel Orientation="Ho rizontal">
<Image Source="Test.jp g" />
<Label VerticalAlignme nt="Center"
Margin="4">_Mal e</Label>
</StackPanel>
</ComboBoxItem>
<ComboBoxItem >
<StackPanel Orientation="Ho rizontal">
<Image Source="Test.jp g" />
<Label VerticalAlignme nt="Center"
Margin="4">_Fem ale</Label>
</StackPanel>
</ComboBoxItem>
</ComboBox>

Thanks,

-Oleg.

Hi All, I am trying to change the rowsource of a combobox when I click on it.

I have a table with products, tblProducts, some of them are Active while others are Inactive. The form shows all the products purchased by a customer, both Active and Inactive in a ComboBox, cbProducts. My client wants to view all...

Hay there, I'm writing my own DataGridComboBoxColumn because .NET 1.1 does not have one (I hope .NET 2.0 supplies one). I based it on this article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/03/08/DataGrids/default.aspx I have a problem when there are two DataGrid's on one form, and when I switch focus from one grid to the other. To be more precise, when I'm editing a combo box column in one grid, and then click in the combo column of...

i have a problem auto-assigning mnemonics when dynamicly generating menues. in some cases, two memorie entries get the same mnemonic key assigned because the words begin with the same letter. this means, that they are more or less useless does anyone have an algorithm or some kind of code i can use to make sure the mnemonic keys are unique when auto-assigning them thank's!

I've looked high and low for some code that will allow me to have a combobox with a flat borderstyle. I found a few examples, but nothing that was really usable for me. I had the following criteria that I wanted to meet, but nothing did: - No reliance on a separate library - No unmanaged code - Easy subclassing of System.Windows.Forms.Combobox (i.e. no custom control monstrosity) - No extra funky features that I didn't need

VS2005 I've been reading all the help I can on the topic (MSDN, other) but I can't make sense of this. Desired behavior; The user is to choose from the displayed list of the databound combobox and the coresponding 'Id' from the lookup table is to be inserted into the field of the new record. I have two simple tables. "tblPerson" is the data table. The lookup

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
