UserControl events ; Enter , KeyDown, KeyPress & KeyUp

0

Greetings all …
I attempted KeyDown,  KeyPress  & KeyUp on a WiseJ UserControl
the goal here is capture the enter/return key anywhere on the control.

So of course there is a table layout panel on my usercontrol so perhaps I need to use its Key events.
so I additionally tried to use those to capture the key input and invoke a search method.
Results are inconsistant.
As if the key-up needed the keypress to be wired up in order to fire. Or something crazy like that but again
inconsistent.
I have all three hooked up ( all six ) if you count the methods on the usercontrol and the tblLayoutPanel,
and I can’t get any of them to fire consistently.

All the key event work perfectly fine for us. If you have a test case that shows your issues we can probably help. The wiring need is part of the documented lazy event system. When running in a browser you don’t want all key and pointer events to fire all the times unless the control requested them.

    Yea thanks Luca I’ve seen the fun fun waltz of events being fired back to back after each character is entered or that kind of stuff thanks. I attempted just the KeyUp only on the main UserControl but then figured that since I wasn’t getting any degree of consistency that perhaps it was confused by the table layout panel sitting atop my whole user control so I wired up the tableLayOutPanels KeyUp instead with same results. Finally all six events as I mentioned three for the user control and three for the table layout panel, same inconsistent results. Sometimes she hits the event some times she doesn’t
