Question: what is the best way to edit a selected object on multilayerviewer by key event?

E.G: we want to use alt-key and arrow-key to move a selected object by one unit ( eg one point) on multilayerviewer.

We tried to use KeyDown event of multilayerviewer to do this. It does detect alt-key but no arrow-key.

What it the good way to do this?

Hello mzhao,

The simplest way to move object is to translate object's transformation matrix.

As for arrow keys - it seems that it is a little bit tricky part. After some googling I finally make it work by overloading ProcessCmdKey() method of the control. Here is sample code:

Code:
class MyMLV : MultiLayerViewer
{
	public MyMLV()
	{
	}

	protected override bool ProcessCmdKey(ref Message msg, Keys keyData)
	{
		const int WM_KEYDOWN = 0x100;
		const int WM_SYSKEYDOWN = 0x104;

		if ((msg.Msg == WM_KEYDOWN) || (msg.Msg == WM_SYSKEYDOWN))
		{
			switch (keyData)
			{
				case Keys.Down:
					MessageBox.Show("Down Arrow Captured");
					break;

				case Keys.Up:
					MessageBox.Show("Up Arrow Captured");
					break;
			}
		}
		return true;
	}
}
