Description Jan Becicka 2002-07-17 09:52:57 UTC 
[200207170340]
Here is the list of mnemonics, which do not 
work:
Step 3. Base Class Definition:
  Alt-r, Alt-m
Step 4. Create Fields: 
  Alt-y, Alt-v
Step 6. Create Methods:
  Alt-r, Alt-o, Alt-x
Comment 1 Marek Grummich 2002-07-22 10:50:12 UTC 
Set target milestone to TBD
Comment 2 Filip Rachunek 2002-07-22 13:36:18 UTC 
It seems that the listed mnemonics do nothing just on JDK 1.4 because
the associated components don't get a focus. On JDK 1.3, everything
works good.

Additional comments from naveen.gangadhar@sun.com

I'm using the following below NB configuration

Build Version : NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200211200100)
OS                : SunOS version 5.8 running on sparc
JDK               : 1.4.0 FCS

Step to Reproduce :

To Reproduce:

- Mount "application" directory as local directory,load
  Wizard from the context menu "New - Java classes - Main"

- Enter the Name

- Traverse to "Create Methods" wizard.

- Enter multiple new methods,by clicking the "New" button
  or press alt-n hot key. It is observed that method2() and
  method3() is shown under Methods text box(as shown in fig
  attached).Also the focus is now on the latest method, method3().

- Click "Delete" or press alt-p, it can be seen that  method3() is
deleted successfully but at the same time the focus instead of
shifting to method2(), seems to be vanishing.

Now to delete method2(), the user has to use mouse, and
cannot perform any operation using hot keys

Is it a known issue or bug ?
Comment 4 Svata Dedic 2003-01-09 16:38:13 UTC 
The focus arrives (properly) at the PropertyPanel, then something
happens on JDK-1.4. It seems that the fix lies in openide. When fixed
in PropertyPanel please reassign back for checking the actual shortcuts.
Comment 5 mslama 2003-02-25 09:30:20 UTC 
Reassign to wizards
Comment 6 Jiri Rechtacek 2003-02-27 08:55:40 UTC 
As Svata said the focus is stolen by PropertyPanel. It should be
discussed with Tim, will be solved in 4.0.
Comment 7 _ tboudreau 2003-02-27 11:24:55 UTC 
Possibly related to issue 17510.  Questions:

This issue starts out as a mnemonic issue and then shifts to 
discussing focus.  Is the specific problem that mnemonics don't work
when the PropertyPanel has focus?  Or that PropertyPanel steals
focus?  Or both?

Chris' comment:
mnemonics need to be fixed.
Comment 10 Jiri Rechtacek 2004-01-06 09:10:21 UTC 
No changes planned to 3.6.
Comment 11 Jiri Rechtacek 2004-01-11 10:57:18 UTC 
The suspected panel is not part of "New Class" wizard => doesn't need
to fix.
