I have a group of text boxes within my form. Whenever I right click on them or the panel they are in, I get this menu:
I want to remove this menu from showing, and leave the right click to be nothing. However, the mouseclick event never fires for any of these. Therefore, I am having trouble getting rid of it. It usually shows up when my text is highlighted.
Is there a way to remove it? Or am I looking in the wrong event?
Another option is to set the ShortcutsEnabled Property of the TextBoxes to False:
Use the ShortcutsEnabled property to enable or disable the
following shortcut key combinations and the control’s shortcut
menu
This disables the keyboard shortcuts as well; not sure if that is applicable to your scenario.

I tried to change the default icon of my applicatoin and now the form gives an error when I compile it, and I don't know to undo the action and go back to the original icon.
I don't know if this helps, but I changed the icon in the properties box:
properties box
Try this. Right mouse button click on the text label part of the Property item (property name) which bring up a context menu with Reset as one of the options - click it and see what happens.
For example, if I press Ctrl-Alt-P to extract a parameter, pressing Tab on the resulting dialog box moves directly from "Name" to "Refactor". I know I can work around this by using Alt+key to select a checkbox (e.g., Alt+a for replace all), but as AltGr doesn't work I have to contort my left hand to hit this combination. How do I, using the keyboard, select the first checkbox, so I can use space to change it?
The only way to access the checkboxes in this dialog is via mnemonics (Alt+underlined letter).
There is also an open issue to add tabstops for checkboxes and radio buttons in the refactoring dialogs so that they can be accessed not only by the mnemonics, but also by cycling the components using Tab:

There is really nothing you can do about it until tabstops are explicitly implemented for these dialogs.
I'm building on top of code that a previous developer has left me, and he left something that intrigued me quite a bit.
Basically on his menus, he has a TextBox to take in user input and a button next to it to submit the value of the TextBox (for example if the user wanted to select option 1, he would input 1 into the TextBox and click the button). However, the user could also press the Enter key while focusing the TextBox, and it would be treated as the submit button was clicked.
Now this is simple enough to do, but when I check the VB code behind the menu, there's no TextBox_Keydown(...) Handles TextBox.Keydown function anywhere, only the button click event. How is he doing this? He has several menus that are similar and I can't figure out how.
A standard dialog box, if not told to act otherwise, enter does default command button and escape does cancel. In VB look at the properties Default for the command button.
I discovered how he was doing it. He basically mapped the AcceptButton and CancelButton properties of the entire Windows Form to various button functions.
I am entering data into text fields in a browser via "type" command. In order for the Save and Cancel buttons to be activated (not grayed out), I need to click in another text field to change focus. This works manually, but I can't seem to figure out how to do it programmatically. I have tried click, clickAt, doubleClick, mouseOver/click/mouseOUt, mouseDown/mouseUp, focus, fireEvent ... all without luck. Thanks for any suggestions!
Does tabbing out of the input field enable the buttons? If so, maybe you can just do:
WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.id("your_input_field"));
element.sendKeys(Keys.TAB);
I have tried to research this all morning and found no solution that worked for me.
I have a ToolStrip, with several buttons on it. I am unable to get figure out how to select any of the buttons when using tab. I did find that it would systematically select the toolstrip but showed no visual indication of that. I only found this out by hitting the left arrow key each time I hit tab.
So my question is, how can I get one button on the toolstrip(Button1) to be selected (so that when I would hit enter, it would automatically use the button) by hitting the tab button.
I have turned the TabStop = True and the TabStop on the main UC is also set to True. I have assigned the ToolStrip a final Index number also. But still nothing gets highlight, but it's focused. I want the Button1 to be focused when I focus the ToolStrip.
Thanks for your help in advance!
ToolStrip.Focus()
Button.Select()
You cant set focus to any button in toolStrip except first Button or any element.
So dont try it.
Its Waste of time...I already tried..that.
