TFileListBox.OnKeyPress property

Member of TFileListBoxpublishedIn unit FileCtrl

Event handler signalled for character data entered by the user.

Declaration

pascal
property OnKeyPress:;

Description

This handler only receives characters, not control or other special key codes. Control keys should be handled by an OnKeyDown handler instead. The handler can also be used to convert the character into a different one.

We recommend using OnUTF8KeyPress to prevent data loss. Characters are converted from UTF-8 to the system encoding in OnKeyPressEvent, with possible loss of characters outside the ANSI codepage.

This description is the one of Controls.TWinControl.OnKeyPress.
