Hi Tracker,
In our application, we disabled "Show page thumbnails" from the menu but our users can use shortcut keys (CTRL T) to show page thumbnails. Is there away we could disable this keyboard shortcut keys?
Any help will be appreciated.

Re: Disable Keyboard Shortcut keys
You can edit any shortcuts to suit your needs.
1. Right-click on any toolbar to open the Customize Toolbars dialogue
2. Select the Commands tab
3. Search for Thumbnails
4. Edit the properties and delete the Ctrl T shortcut

Re: Disable Keyboard Shortcut keys
Hi guys,
Thanks for the posts - docu-track99; are when you say "your own app", are you referring to the Editor deployed with custom settings, or an application that you have created with the SDK?

Created app using the SDK. Can we programmatically disable the shortcut key (CTRL T) for showing page thumbnails?

Hello docu-track99,
Did you try to intercept keyboard notifications and then just tell the Editor to ignore the desired key combination:

Hi Stefan,
How do you intercept key combination (CTRL T)? Would you be able to provide us a sample code?

Hi docu-track,
As discussed here:
https://forum.pdf-xchange.com/ ... 36&t=12761
You can listen for the "KEY DOWN" for the first of the combination of keys, and if that key is still down when the second event triggers - then you have the desired key combination pressed. If the first key triggers "Key UP" event - then stop listening for the second one.
Regards,
Stefan
