Handling VirtualKey in Windows 8 Store Apps with C#

Question

I\'m aware of how to handle key events, i.e.

private void Page_KeyUp(object sender, KeyRoutedEventArgs e)
{
  switch (e.Key)
  {
    case Windows.System.Virt         


        

Answer 1

You can't easily get this information from KeyUp because KeyUp only knows which keys are being pressed, not which letters are being typed. You could check for the shift key being down and you could also try to track caps lock yourself. Better you use TextChanged event.
