Button mnemonics on Leopard

Title: Button mnemonics on Leopard

Hi All,

I am still in the process of testing my Swing application on Leopard and I have been reading the Java on Leopard release notes provided by Apple but I am struggling to understand some items and would appreciate a bit of help… (it could also be language problems – I am not English speaking ;-)

My question refers to the bellow item in the release notes.

On Leopard, my buttons no longer display the mnemonics underline mark.

My understanding of the bellow item – underline should appear regardless of ‘Option’ key being pressed. Is my understanding correct?

Example:

For a button created with –

…

  private JButton send = new JButton(“Send);

…       

        // Send button.

        send.setEnabled(false);

        send.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_D);

        send.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {

          public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {

            handleSend();

          }

        });

I am expecting the ‘d’ to have an underline, it no longer does (on Leopard) regardless of state of ‘Option’ key.

What am I missing here?

Thanks!!

Inbar.

Note: I set my application to use the system look & feel (UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());).

Accelerator mnemonic keys are not consistent with the Aqua user interface

Description:

Java no longer paints the underlined mnemonic character for components that have an accelerator key set until the user holds down the "option" key. The same accelerator behavior is still present, but the underline is not drawn on menus or controls until "option" key is held down by the user.

Resolution:

This problem is now fixed.
