How to use multiple modifier keys in C#

Question

I am using a keydown event to detect keys pressed and have several key combinations for various operations.

if (e.KeyCode == Keys.C && e.Modifiers == Keys.Control && e.Modifiers == Keys.Shift)
{
    //Do work
}
else if (e.KeyCode == Keys.V && e.Modifiers == Keys.Control)
{
    //Paste
}

For some reason the key combination in which I hit Ctrl + Shift + C is not working. I have re ordered them, and placed it at the top thinking it might be interference from the Ctrl + C , and even removed the Ctrl + C to see if it was causing a problem. It still does not work. I know it's probably something very simple, but can't quite grasp what it is. All of my 1 modifier + 1 key combination's work fine, as soon as I add a second modifier is when it no longer works.

Answer 1

if (e.KeyCode == Keys.C && e.Modifiers == (Keys.Control | Keys.Shift))
{
    //Do work
}
else if (e.KeyCode == Keys.V && e.Modifiers == Keys.Control)
{
    //Paste
}

Answer 2

您是否尝试过e.Modifiers == (Keys.Control | Keys.Shift) ？

Answer 3

If you want to allow Ctrl and Shift then use the bitwise OR (as Keys is a Flags enum)

if (e.KeyCode == Keys.C && e.Modifiers == (Keys.Control | Keys.Shift))
{
    //Do work (if Ctrl-Shift-C is pressed, but not if Alt is pressed as well)
}
else if (e.KeyCode == Keys.V && e.Modifiers == Keys.Control)
{
    //Paste (if Ctrl is only modifier pressed)
}

This will fail if Alt is pressed as well

另一种方法是添加一个不可见的菜单项，为其分配Ctrl + Shift + C快捷方式，然后在那里处理事件。

Answer 5

      if ((Keyboard.Modifiers & ModifierKeys.Shift | ModifierKeys.Control) > 0)
          Debugger.Launch();

Answer 6

This is what I did for a Ctrl + Z Undo and Ctrl + Shift + Z Redo operation and it worked.

  Private Sub Form_Main_KeyDown(sender As Object, e As KeyEventArgs) Handles Me.KeyDown
    Select Case e.KeyCode
      Case Keys.Add
        diagramView.ZoomIn()
      Case Keys.Subtract
        diagramView.ZoomOut()
      Case Keys.Z
        If e.Modifiers = Keys.Control + Keys.Shift Then
          diagram.UndoManager.Redo()
        ElseIf e.Modifiers = Keys.Control Then
          diagram.UndoManager.Undo()
        End If
    End Select
  End Sub

Answer 7

Try this. Should behave the way you want it to, and it's a little simpler.

 if (e.Control)
 {
    if (e.Shift && e.KeyCode == Keys.C)
    {
       //Do work
    }
    else if (e.KeyCode == Keys.V)
    {
       //Paste
    }
 }

Answer 8

Seeing as no one else mentions them, i'm just going to leave the suggestion to use KeyEventArgs.KeyData:

if (e.KeyData == (Keys.C | Keys.Control | Keys.Shift)
{
  //do stuff
  //potentially use e.Handled = true
}
if (e.KeyData == (Keys.V | Keys.Control)
{
  //do other stuff
  //potentially use e.Handled = true
}

This should only act on specific key combinations, though the order of the modifiers don't seem to matter, the first one is always the last pressed key.

And e.Handled = true should stop it, though i don't know the specific mechanics behind it.
