Keyboard esc (escape) key not working

[Jean-Marc Windholz]

Hi
I have a problem with my application (a 3D editor) : my application uses a graphic engine and so in the interface I have to include some libraries; the graphic engine intercepts every event when the event happens over the window that contains the 3D model (i.e. mouseOver, MouseClick, KeyPress, .....) .
My engine gives me every indication of events happening over it: I can intercept every key press event, except for esc key; every other key event is managed by my engine and I can do whatever I want.
I am sure this problem is not due to the engine, so probably so there is probably some keyboard hook in the Telerik  framework that filter out the Esc key events.
Can you please help me with this problem ?

Thank in advance

Not sure why this is happening, but I have a winForm that exposes a dialog box which is actually a radForm.  I have a Cancel button that closes the form, however when I set the forms CancelButton property to the Close button, the even is never being fired.
Is there another setting or something I am missing to execute the 'Cancel' option?

Thanks
Bob

Hi there -

I downloaded the current version as you suggested.
I discovered an anomaly that causes the 'CancelButton' event not to fire.

Simply naming your button 'CancelButton' will keep the event from firing.  Apparently this is a common issue because it happens on stock Windows controls as well.

Rename the button to something else, and then bind the CancelButton to the new name of the button.

Just found it interesting you can't have a button called 'CancelButton'.

We chanced our naming conventions from 'btnCancel' to 'CancelButton'.  May have to make a note on this one.

Regards,
Bob

Hello Jennifer,

Thank you for sharing this information with us. Indeed, this is an interesting case which appears in both the standard Form and in RadForm. I will log this case in PITS and we will see if there is something that we can do in order to cover this case in RadForm. Here is a link to the items, where you can track its status: http://www.telerik.com/support/pits.aspx#/public/winforms/10899.

Let us know if you have any questions or suggestions.
