 Remarks

Usually FlowChartX processes keystrokes by handling the WM_KEYDOWN Windows message. However, in order to implement form navigation, some containers filter various key combinations and the respective messages don't reach the FlowChartX keyboard processing code. For example this happens when the control is placed inside a VB user control or in a VB MDI child window. For such situations, FlowChartX allows processing the keyboard events in its implementation of the COM IOleInPlaceActiveObjectImpl::TranslateAccelerator method. If you notice that the control does not process key presses as expected or does not fire the KeyDown event, consider enabling the following flags:

Flag	Default value	Description
fHandleDelInTranslAcc	false	If enabled, the DEL key is processed in the implementation of TranslateAccelerator.
fHandleArrowsInTranslAcc	false	If enabled, the arrow keys are processed in the implementation of TranslateAccelerator.
fHandleKeyDownInTranslAcc	false	If enabled, all keys are processed in the implementation of TranslateAccelerator.
