WebBrowser.WebBrowserShortcutsEnabled Property

.NET Framework 4

Gets or sets a value indicating whether keyboard shortcuts are enabled within the WebBrowser control.

Namespace:  System.Windows.Forms
Assembly:  System.Windows.Forms (in System.Windows.Forms.dll)
C#
C++
F#
VB
Copy 
public bool WebBrowserShortcutsEnabled { get; set; }

Property Value

Type: System.Boolean
true if keyboard shortcuts are enabled within the control; otherwise, false. The default is true.

Set this property to false to prevent your users from using Internet Explorer keyboard shortcuts with the WebBrowser control. This is useful when you want to conceal the fact that you are using the WebBrowser control, for example to create a user interface that seamlessly combines DHTML-based controls with Windows Forms controls.

You can disable other standard browser features by setting the AllowWebBrowserDrop and IsWebBrowserContextMenuEnabled properties to false.

The following code example demonstrates how to use the WebBrowserShortcutsEnabled property.

C#
VB
Copy 

webBrowser1.WebBrowserShortcutsEnabled = false;

copy/paste shortcuts
Copy/paste shortcuts like Ctrl-C, Ctrl-X, Ctrl-V are also disabled if you set this to false. There should be a way to keep those enabled anyway, as they are really important for text input (just like Del).
