Is it possible to have own text in the place where in menu is
displayed shortcut? A picture for demonstration:

I want it for special shortcut keys, e.g. "Numpad +", or "Esc+X S",
"Ctrl+X Ctrl+S". I will catch theese shorcuts with my own code, so I
don't need from theese shortcuts to actually work. I just need to
display there a "fake shortcut description". It is possible?[/img]

Hi Dusan,

Offhand, that sounds a bit non-standard. I assume you mean that you
want shortcuts that are different from the standard list available in
Lazarus for a menu command. I think these have to be single key
shortcuts, whereas what you've indicated are more than one keystroke.

Thanks.

Is there somewhere (in lcl or so) function which converts regular
shortcuts,e.g. Ctrl+X into string "Ctrl+X" or this conversion is
provided by widget set (gtk,win32)?
