ShortCut specifies a keyboard shortcut

Member of Menu Item (PRIM_MITM)

Data Type - Enumeration

Details

The ShortCut property defines the key combination used to fire the click event for the menu item.
 
If the menu item is part of a Popup menu the short cut will not work.
 
Preferred short cuts are Ctrl+[A-Z] combinations or function keys. It is possible to set the shortcut key to Alt+[A-Z], but this is not recommended because as a rule Alt+[A-Z] combinations are used as the access key based on the underlined letter of the caption.
 
F1 will initiate the default LANSA runtime help interface. Use the PRIM_APP.iHelpHandler interface to implement a different help mechanism.

Allowed Shortcuts

ShortCut has many available combinations. See the Feature Viewer (F2) or autocomplete in the IDE for additional information.
