How to handle hot key event in a indicator

[zzeric]

It seems just can set KeyDown/KeyUp event handler in a indicator, but in the KeyDown/KeyUp handler, can not receive combined keys, for example crtl + up.
So it can not replace the OnBarSpacingMinusHotKey.
BTW, it seems the ChartControl also do nothing when OnBarSpacingMinusHotKey.

so, How to handle hot key event in a indicator?

Hello zzeric,

Thanks for your post.

This would require the use of custom C# logic and goes beyond the support we would be able to provide you in the Support department.

You could do a Google search for something like 'KeyDown event C#' or 'KeyUp event C#' to find more information about how to use these C# event handlers.

Note that OnBarSpacingMinusHotKey is not a documented/supported method and goes beyond the support we can provide also. It would be up to your discretion to use this in your script since it is unsupported.

That said, this forum thread will also be open for other community members to share their insights on this topic.

Please let me know if I may assist further.
