How to assign SuperAccelerator to the WinForms RibbonControlAdv Items?
Super Accelerator
In the RibbonControlAdv, the SuperAccelerator can be enabled for all its components. You can use the following functions to assign the SuperAccelerator elements to all of the RibbonControlAdv items. They are,
- SetMenuButtonAccelerator.
- SetAccelerator.
- Accelerator.
SetMenuButtonAcceletor - The SetMenuButtonAccelerator function helps you to specify the SuperAccelerator in the MenuButton of the RibbonControlAdv.
SetAccelerator - The SetAccelerator function helps you to specify the SuperAccelerator in all of the ToolStrip items.
Accelerator - The Accelerator property helps you to specify the SuperAccelerator in the BackStage items. In order to show the super accelerator in the BackStageView, the SuperAccelerator should be attached to the BackStage by using the SuperAccelerator property.
