I am coding an app in window and mac platform.I have finished code like this:
<Button x:Name="ForwardButton" Text=">" Command="{Binding ForwardCommand}">
and it works well.But The button is an clcik event.The user will click the button many times.So I want to change the way to an keyboard event.The right button in keyboard will be the better way to use the function. Now I do not know how to let maui with CommunityToolkit catch the keyboard event. someone show me the code like this:
<ContentPage xmlns:mvvm="clr-namespace:CommunityToolkit.Mvvm.ComponentModel;assembly=CommunityToolkit.Mvvm" ...>
...
<ContentPage.Behaviors>
<mvvm:EventToCommandBehavior EventName="KeyUp" SourceObject="{x:Reference Name=myTextBox}" Command="{Binding EnterKeyPressedCommand}"/>
</ContentPage.Behaviors>
</ContentPage>
but unfortunately,it does not work. So Could anyone tell me what to do? I have been blocked by the problem for a long time. thank you.
I have found a perfect solution from msdn document. Now you can code like this:
First, create a label and use this code:
<Label x:Name="MenuLabel" StyleClass="LabelStyle1" Text="RightClickMenu">
<FlyoutBase.ContextFlyout>
<MenuFlyout>
<MenuFlyoutItem Text="Back" Command="{Binding BackCommand}" >
<MenuFlyoutItem.KeyboardAccelerators>
<KeyboardAccelerator Modifiers="None" Key="Left" />
</MenuFlyoutItem.KeyboardAccelerators>
</MenuFlyoutItem>
<MenuFlyoutItem Text="Forward" Command="{Binding ForwardCommand}" >
<MenuFlyoutItem.KeyboardAccelerators>
<KeyboardAccelerator Modifiers="None" Key="Right" />
</MenuFlyoutItem.KeyboardAccelerators>
</MenuFlyoutItem>
<MenuFlyoutItem Text="GoToStart" Command="{Binding GoToStartCommand}" >
<MenuFlyoutItem.KeyboardAccelerators>
<KeyboardAccelerator Modifiers="None" Key="Up" />
</MenuFlyoutItem.KeyboardAccelerators>
</MenuFlyoutItem>
<MenuFlyoutItem Text="GoToEnd" Command="{Binding GoToEndCommand}" >
<MenuFlyoutItem.KeyboardAccelerators>
<KeyboardAccelerator Modifiers="None" Key="Down" />
</MenuFlyoutItem.KeyboardAccelerators>
</MenuFlyoutItem>
</MenuFlyout>
</FlyoutBase.ContextFlyout>
</Label>
Second, hide the label. Now , You have keyboard event. It is so simple.
Attention!! the method is only available in .net core 8.
Good luck.
