How to disable shortcuts in WPF TextBox

Question

I want to disable all default shortcuts in WPF TextBox. Shortcuts like Ctrl + A, Ctrl + V, Ctrl + C etc. Can this be done?. It looks to me that these shortcuts are executed before KeyDown event

Answer 1

You can intercept the keystrokes in the PreviewKeyDown event. Set the e.Handled member to true and that will prevent the actually processing of the keys.
