Happens on MAC OS X 10.2.4 with JDK 1.4.1. I select multiple files, then I press the Meta (Apple) Key an then click the mouse to emulate a right click for menu. Result: All files are deselected except for the one which on which the mouse cursor is located. Any action selected in the menu works only for this file, not for all previously selected ones. Expected Result: Normally the menu should open and all files should still be selected. Any action in the menu should be applied to all selected files.
*** Issue 33285 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. ***
I found out that JTree does not retain its selection when control clicked. So it is an bug in JDK. I reported it to Apple including simple example. Bug ID is 3534423. Closing as wontfix.
