Examples
The following example shows how to create a KeyBinding that associates a KeyGesture with a RoutedCommand. The KeyBinding uses the ModifierKeys enumeration to specify the modifier key of the gesture.
<Window.InputBindings>
<KeyBinding Command="ApplicationCommands.Open"
Gesture="CTRL+R" />
</Window.InputBindings>
// Creating a KeyBinding between the Open command and Ctrl-R
KeyBinding OpenCmdKeyBinding = new KeyBinding(
ApplicationCommands.Open,
Key.R,
ModifierKeys.Control);
this.InputBindings.Add(OpenCmdKeyBinding);
' Creating a KeyBinding between the Open command and Ctrl-R
Dim OpenCmdKeyBinding As New KeyBinding(ApplicationCommands.Open, Key.R, ModifierKeys.Control)
Me.InputBindings.Add(OpenCmdKeyBinding)
Remarks
The Modifiers property on the Keyboard class is the set of the modifier keys that are currently pressed.
Some APIs in Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) that make use of the ModifierKeys enumeration are the Modifiers properties on the Keyboard, KeyBinding, KeyGesture, and MouseGesture classes.
