Insert access key with F9

Question

I use Passolo 2016 - WPF-Localization 
 We have strings with the following syntax: _File open 
 "_" ist the acess key sign 
 How can I insert the acess key in the translated string automatically? With F9 (as before) it doesn't work.

I think the problem is the file format and the used parser. It is the parser itself that must understand the different resources (WPF Forms, or Win32 dialogs and menus) and then implements that F9 is inserting a unique access key for the actual context (form or menu). This is why the standard WPF parser is correctly inserting access keys. Maybe the DLL you are localizing contains just a string table resource and the Rigi parser definitely just imports a long string list. So these parsers are not able to differentiate between resources and therefore cannot implement that F9 is inserting an access key unique for the context.
