System.Windows.Forms.Control.OnPreviewKeyDown Method

Raises the Control.PreviewKeyDown event.

Syntax

[System.ComponentModel.EditorBrowsable(System.ComponentModel.EditorBrowsableState.Advanced)]
protected virtual void OnPreviewKeyDown (PreviewKeyDownEventArgs e)

Parameters

e
A System.Windows.Forms.PreviewKeyDownEventArgs that contains the event data.

Remarks

Raising an event invokes the event handler through a delegate. For more information, see Raising an Event.

The Control.OnPreviewKeyDown(PreviewKeyDownEventArgs) method also allows derived classes to handle the event without attaching a delegate. This is the preferred technique for handling the event in a derived class.

Requirements
