Hi Everyone,

I facing a problem in writing KeyCode inside KeyCode, which is I want to execute my code using KeyCode but the input is different. The first "if" is working but for the second "if else" is not give me any output. Here I attached my code.

What I have tried:

private void MainWindow_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
       {
           if (e.KeyCode == Keys.NumPad0)
           {
               funcDisp.Text = "Pwr.Wheel";
               funcDisp.ForeColor = Color.LimeGreen;
               set1Disp.Text = "Up";
               set1Disp.ForeColor = Color.LimeGreen;
               set2Disp.Text = "Down";
               set2Disp.ForeColor = Color.LimeGreen;

               if (e.KeyCode == Keys.NumPad1)
               {
                   textVolt.Text = "UP";
               }

               else if (e.KeyCode == Keys.NumPad3)
               {
                   textBrake.Text = "DOWN";
               }

           }

Your "if's" (2 and 3) are inside the first (if); that won't work. Also, use a switch instead.

you mean like this:

private void MainWindow_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
{
if (e.KeyCode == Keys.NumPad0)
{
funcDisp.Text = "Pwr.Wheel";
funcDisp.ForeColor = Color.LimeGreen;
set1Disp.Text = "Up";
set1Disp.ForeColor = Color.LimeGreen;
set2Disp.Text = "Down";
set2Disp.ForeColor = Color.LimeGreen;

switch (e.KeyCode)
{
case Keys.NumPad1:
{
textVolt.Text = "UP";
break;
}

case Keys.NumPad2:
{
textBrake.Text = "DOWN";
break;
}
}
}

Look at your code: what you have is this:

C#

if (x == 0)
   foo();
   if (x == 1)
      bar();
   else if (x == 2)
      foobar();

Or later this:

C#

if (x == 0)
   foo();
   switch (x)
      case 1:
         bar();
         break;
      case 2:
         foobar();
         break;

If x is equal to zero, it cannot at the same time be equal to one or two. You need to restructure your code so that the values can be checked properly - changing test constructs won't do that when its; teh whole structure that is wrong.

C#

if (x == 0)
   foo();
if (x == 1)
   bar();
else if (x == 2)
   foobar();

Or this:

C#

if (x == 0)
   foo();
else if (x == 1)
   bar();
else if (x == 2)
   foobar();

Or perhaps this:

C#

switch (x)
   case 0:
      foo();
      break;
   case 1:
      bar();
      break;
   case 2:
      foobar();
      break;
