    Hi,

    As there’s no property available to assign a shortcut key to a C1Ribbon.RibbonMenu - is there a way to have the items of a RibbonMenu being displayed by a keystroke ?

    Thanks in advance,

    Stephan

    Hello,

    You can use the KeyTip property to providing keyboard access to a RibbonMenu.

    https://www.grapecity.com/componentone/docs/win/online-ribbon/C1.Win.Ribbon.5~C1.Win.Ribbon.RibbonMenu~KeyTip.html

    You need to press the Alt key press first at runtime to see the KeyTips.

    If this does not help, you can use the KeyDown event of the Form as given below:

    this.KeyDown += Form1_KeyDown;
    
    private void Form1_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
     {
      if (e.KeyCode == Keys.Y)
       {
        ribbonMenu1.DroppedDown = true;
       }
    }
    

    If you need any other help, please let us know.

    Regards,

    Prabhat Sharma.
