In general, an action can have multiple shortcuts (keybindings) assigned. In the Tools-Options -> Keymap one is marked as the primary shortcut and the rest are alternative shortcuts. AFAIK Back and Forward have each two shortcuts assigned and changing the alternative or adding another alternative won't update the action's tooltip. Is this the case? Back's alternative shortcut is Alt+KP_LEFT and it's primary (regular I suppose) shortcut is Alt+LEFT. Changing the alternative Back shortcut results in a tooltip change, which seems to be the real cause. I see. Thanks for the info. This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue. Thanks for your cooperation, NetBeans IDE 8.2 Release Boss |
Created attachment 95132 [details] screenshot of issue Hovering over the Back action in the editor always shows the tooltip "Back (Alt+KP_LEFT)" rather than changing to what the current binding is. I tried changing it to something like Ctrl+Alt+Shift+LEFT and it remained the same, whereas changing Forward to something different resulted in a new tooltip text.
