I am trying to setup the keyboard and mouse events, but they are not firing. I have the following code.

WpfWebControl Browser;
.
.
Browser.KeyDown+= W_KeyDown;
.
.
void W_KeyDown(object sender, System.Windows.Input.KeyEventArgs e)
{...}

The KeyDown event never gets raised.
The mouse events are setup the same way and are not working either.
Is there a different way I should approach this in order to detect key/mouse input within the browser control?

Hi,

You won't be able to handle the KeyDown event on the WebControl class. However you should be able to handle KeyDown event on the WebView class. For example:

Code: C# 
Browser.WebView.KeyDown += W_KeyDown;


Note that the signature of the WebView.KeyDown event is different than the standard WPF KeyDown event. It does not particulate the standard WPF event bubbling process either. So you won't be able to cancel it like you do in WPF KeyDown event. If you are trying to implement hot keys, you should use the built in hot key support:

Hope this helps. Please feel free to let us know if you still have any more questions.

Thanks!
