How would you implement a hotkey for the Approve RadButton in the following code snippet?

                              <telerik:RadButton Name="btApproveReport"  Click="btApproveReport_Click"  Margin="10,0,10,0" Width="Auto" HorizontalContentAlignment="Center" MaxHeight="30" VerticalContentAlignment="Center" >         
                        <telerik:RadButton.Content>         
                          <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" Margin="4 0">         
                            <TextBlock Text="Approve"   Foreground="DarkGreen" FontSize="12" />         
                            <Image Source="pack://application:,,,/Resources/CheckMark.png" Margin="5 0 0 0" Height="16" Width="16" />         
                          </StackPanel>         
                        </telerik:RadButton.Content>         
                      </telerik:RadButton>

Hi Daniel Schuessler,

The best approach for handing hotkeys is using Commands like follows.

<Window.InputBindings>

<KeyBinding Modifiers="Control" Key="a" Command="ApplicationCommands.Open"/>

</Window.InputBindings>

<Window.CommandBindings>

<CommandBinding Command="ApplicationCommands.Open" Executed="CommandBinding_Executed" CanExecute="CommandBinding_CanExecute"/>

</Window.CommandBindings>

<Grid>

<telerik:RadButton Name="btApproveReport" Command="ApplicationCommands.Open" Margin="10,0,10,0" Width="Auto" HorizontalContentAlignment="Center" MaxHeight="30" VerticalContentAlignment="Center" >

<telerik:RadButton.Content>

<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" Margin="4 0">

<TextBlock Text="Approve" Foreground="DarkGreen" FontSize="12" />

</StackPanel>

</telerik:RadButton.Content>

</telerik:RadButton>

</Grid>

And in the code behind:

private void CommandBinding_Executed(object sender, ExecutedRoutedEventArgs e)

{

//Your click handler.

}

private void CommandBinding_CanExecute(object sender, CanExecuteRoutedEventArgs e)

{

e.CanExecute = true;

}

Hope will works for you.

All the best,
