How to get Keypress event in Windows Panel control in C#

Question

i want to get keypress event in windows panel control in c#, is any body help for me...

Answer 1

"Panel" objects cannot receive the "KeyPress" event correctly.

I've created Panel overload:

public class PersoPanel : Panel

and used the overridden method ProcessCmdKey:

protected override bool ProcessCmdKey(ref Message msg, Keys keyData)

to intercept pressed keys:

protected override bool ProcessCmdKey(ref Message msg, Keys keyData)
{
    MessageBox.Show("You press " + keyData.ToString());

    // dO operations here...

    return base.ProcessCmdKey(ref msg, keyData);
}
