I'm new to this list and have no idea how to respond within a thread.
I tried to replicate the subject line??
give me a hint

problem. The EVT_KEY_DOWN event is only sent from widgets that have the
keyboard focus, and frames can not have the focus. What kind of content
is in the frame? If there are child widgets then that is where the
focus will be.
Well, it works fine on Kubuntu. For instance the focus might be on a textctrl
and yet I can use pagedown to scroll a listctrl.
So how would I see keyboard events, like function keys, which have to do with
controlling the app and not just the widget under focus?
Surely I don't have to bind EVT_KEY_DOWN to every textctrl.
Frankly, the whole business of which event bindings respond and when
is very unclear to me.
