Good morning, I have a winform application which includes:

  1. Main Form with a toolstrip menu and a toolstrip bar
  2. Inside the main form, a tab control, where each tab contains a toolstrip bar with a toolstrip text box

I need to enter text in the toolstrip text box, even with special character. My problem is, when I try to digit the ] character, using Alt Gr + (Italian keyboard), rather than add the character to the toolstrip textbox, the application move the focus on the button of the toolstrip bar of the main form. Other characters ([, @, #) works fine. Hope somebody can help. Thank you.

  • Does it happens after pressing alt key alone? A workaround would be to copy that character from somewhere else and use ctr-v to paste. – Sinatr Sep 21 '17 at 09:00
  • For those who doesnot have italian keyboard, what is the other symbols on the button that contins "]"? – ASpirin Sep 21 '17 at 09:11
  • Thank you for the comment, pressing the AltGr alone does nothing. The strange thing is that it happens using AltGr with apparently random keys (O, I, +, but not @, #, L). Of course copying and pasting the character works fine, but is not an acceptable solution, since it forces the user to open something else to type or find the character – bui3 Sep 21 '17 at 09:11
