Forcing edit mode in a TListView via a keypress
Question:
When the user clicks on a caption in the listview, it goes into
edit mode. How can I force the edit mode by pressing F2 or a similar
key?
Answer:
The following example demonstrates trapping the F2 key in a
Listview control and forcing the caption into edit mode.
Example:
procedure TForm1.ListView1KeyDown(Sender: TObject; var Key: Word;
Shift: TShiftState);
begin
if Ord(Key) = VK_F2 then
ListView1.Selected.EditCaption;
end;
