Bug has been transfered from BugTraq: http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4826807.html Description: Name: ssR10187 Date: 03/03/2003 Product Version = Sun ONE Studio 5, Standard Edition (Build 030220_2) IDE Versioning = IDE/1 spec=3.38 impl=030220_2 Operating System = SunOS version 5.8 running on sparc Java; VM; Vendor = 1.4.0; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 1.4.0-b92; Sun Microsystems Inc. To reproduce: - Open wizard dialog via File/New/JSP &Servlet/Web Module Button "..." shoud have ASCII mnemonic (like Browse...). ====================================================================== Evaluation: I agree with Tim (his mail is attached below). This type of issues should be solved in general for whole IDE not only for one dialog, so we need a proposal from UI/HIE. --------------------- > FYI, I have initiated a conversation with the HIEs to determine > what the correct resolution is for issues like the one below, > and also on use of mnemonics for instructions (which is > genuinely inconsistent in the IDE - I have created umbrella > issue http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=31537 > to address it). > The case of the "..." button may be problematic since it is > a use case of PropertyPanel, which is also used in the > property sheet and elsewhere - no single mnemonic or text > is correct for all use cases, and for some (in the property > sheet itself), it would be impossible to add > "&Browse" or such due to screen real estate limitations. > Determining when an instance of PropertyPanel is in a > context where text/mnemonic can be displayed may > also be problematic, but I haven't investigated it > yet. ======================== Anyway it isn't property panel about what we are speaking here. A comment.
Ann, what do you think the mnemonic should be ? Also, should not we just rename the button to something that has text, e.g. 'Browse...' ?
I agree, our dialogs should have a "&Browse..." instead of "..." for localization and mnemonic reasons. in general, we should evaluate if dialog needs some GUI layout tweaking if this throws off the alignment of components or compresses text fields too much. Looking at this particular instance though, I think replacing the button text will not compromise space.
Upgrading to P2, reassigning to Milan.
I fixed the issue. "..." button is just changed to "Browse..." button. Also the mnemonic key 'B' added. Waiting for code review from P.Jiricka
Integrated.

Thanks, it is already fixed, but ... There are two buttons with the same mnemonic = mnemonics collicion, "Browse" and "Back" have the mnemonic 'B'. I am sorry :(
Sorry - I haven't noticed that. I need to have the same a11y check program as Marian has. See the diff : http://web.netbeans.org/source/browse/web/core/src/org/netbeans/modules/web/context/Bundle.properties.diff?r1=1.10&r2=1.11
