Description Martin Krauskopf 2007-03-17 18:15:13 UTC
Alt-i currently invoke Prof_i_ler menu instead of Vers_i_oning menu. It is very
visible and quite disturbing. Consider rather Alt-p, Alt-o or Alt-l.
Comment 1 Jiri Sedlacek 2007-03-18 11:52:34 UTC
Regression to what version?? Why do you think this is Profiler problem??
Profiler mnemonic has always been _i_ (since introduced in 5.0), Vers_i_oning is
new in 6.0.
Comment 2 Martin Krauskopf 2007-03-18 12:07:21 UTC
Alt-i is have been used - for relatively long time; to invoke Vers_i_oning in
the *default* build of NetBeans from repository (without any addons). So
everybody who did not explicitly install profiler add-on in the past was used to
use Alt-i to invoke Versioning menu. Now when I build default NB build, Alt-i
invokes Prof_i_ler menu. This breaks the way I was used to work for long time
and quite visibly for keyboard users.
Clearly the problem is that the profiler is fresh module in the *standard* NB
build. So I chose profiler to file a bug to.
If you feel that rather Versioning should change their shortcut... reassign to
them. Also I've added Jano who will have probably stronger opinion. I think that
default NetBeans installation should not have conflicting mnemonics in the
top-level main menu.
Comment 3 Josef Pavlicek 2007-03-26 10:15:53 UTC
Hi,
thanks for great information! We developed the Versioning UI spec if the
Profiler was not default part of NB IDE. I suggest use Alt + P for Profiler
because Profiler word starts P and we don't have Alt +P used now. For Versioning
we can not use Alt + V because this mnemonic uses View ITEM.  So please  use Alt
+ I for Versioning.
