Hi everybody,
i have a custom command assigned with

InputGestureCollection igc = new InputGestureCollection();
igc.Add(new KeyGesture(Key.P, ModifierKeys.Control | ModifierKeys.Shift));
applicationPrintSelect = new RibbonCommand("ApplicationPrintSelect", typeof(Ribbon), "PrintSelect", null, "/Images2/Print32.png", "Auswahl anzeigen", igc);

The screen tip shows Ctrl+Shift+P as keyboard shortcut instead of Strg+Umsch+P (the German key description). Input gestures for ApplicationCommands are shown in the language specific description. Anything i can do?

Hi Michael,

Right now, the code to build the shortcut is this: 
((KeyGesture)inputGesture).GetDisplayStringForCulture(System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture)
Is that incorrect?

Hi,

seems to be correct. I checked the currentCultrue (de-DE for my system), seems to be correct either. Anyway, the statement returns Ctrl+...

Well, it is not a real problem - just a little bit confusing as i get "Strg+P" for Application.Print and "Ctrl+Shift+P" for my user command.

I reflected on Microsoft's MenuItem code and they do the same thing: 
gesture.GetDisplayStringForCulture(CultureInfo.CurrentCulture);
So I'm not quite sure what the problem could be here. Could you try manually calling that code on your KeyGesture to see if you get the English or German version? I'm interested in your results.

Hi,
i checked the GetDisplayStringForCulture call for my key gestures. CultureInfo.currentculture is set to de-de, but the returned string always contains the English description. ApplicationCommands (where i don't set an explicit key gesture as they already have one) display the right description (like Strg+P for Application.Print). Well, seems to be a MS-Bug?!

Hi Michael,

Since you can duplicate both ways, can you post in the Microsoft WPF forum on this so we can see what their response is:

Well, posted the subject to MS. Meanwhile, as workarround, i set the keygesture display upon creation of the gesture (third parm of new KeyGesture overload). The text is then displayed as desired on Ribbon ScreenTips.
