Hello Bhavesh, Thanks for providing the screenshots. And yes, currently, RibbonBar doesn't support this acceleratory keys function. I will record it as a new enhancement/requirement request and will transfer it to our product team for consideration. Regards, Mark Lee

Hello Mark, Thanks for the solution 1, but for the solution 2 there must be an option to set the accelerator keys for Category, large button, small button etc. Because every I have to select the category then need to access the panel item and then I can access the menu item. But I don't want to use the mouse in that case. Can you please provide these kind of functionality because it is really required and other application's ribbon bar also having these kind of functionality. So please look into it. Regards, Bhavesh Vyas

Hi Bhavesh, Thanks for reporting this problem. 1. For RibbonMenuItem, the user can assign an accelerator key by typing an ampersand (&) before the letter in the menu item text. For example, &File designates the F in File as an accelerator key. The user can also assign shortcut keys to ribbon menus, see Shortcut for details. RibbonMenuItem lnv_menuItem lnv_menuItem.Text ="&Open" 2. For other RibbonBar controls, controls such as RibbonLargeButtonItem, RibbonSmallButtonItem, and RibbonTabButtonItem do not support this setting. But these kinds of controls have Shortcut properties. The shortcut key is a combination of keys that a user can press to select an item whether or not the item is displayed. You can refer to the following link for the detail: https://docs.appeon.com/pb2019r2/objects_and_controls/ch03s260.html RibbonTabButtonItem lr_TabButton lr_TabButton.Shortcut = "Ctrl+Alt+A" Regards, Mark Lee

*Phenomenon: Accelerator keys are not working for the ribbon bar control *Reproduce Steps: Previously in the traditional menu we can use "&" to set any accelerator keys to the menu icon and on click of that key with "Alt" it was calling the menu's clicked event. Now I want to switch to the ribbon bar control but there is no any option to set the accelerator keys in ribbon bar. Remarks:
