Skipping KeyDown On Override ProcessCmdKey EventHandller

I have a simple increment on textbox by pressing down arrow key which are as below.

protected override bool ProcessCmdKey(ref Message msg, Keys keyData)
{

     if (keyData == Keys.Down)
     {

           int c = int.Parse(textBox1.Text);
           c++;
           textBox1.Text = c.ToString();


     }
 }

The above works on pressing double down arrow key instead of single pressing down arrow key.

Note: The above code is on UserControl. And I have tried it on simple winform application on form keydown EventHandller and the same is works fine.

How to overcome?.

You'll need to handle other commands that existed before and return when you handle ones you are looking for. Try changing it to this and see if that helps:

protected override bool ProcessCmdKey(ref Message msg, Keys keyData)
{
   if (msg.WParam.ToInt32() == (int)Keys.Down)
   {
      int c = int.Parse(textBox1.Text);
      c++;
      textBox1.Text = c.ToString();
      return true;
   }
   return base.ProcessCmdKey(ref msg, keyData);
}
