Description Jaromir Uhrik 2006-10-04 09:44:42 UTC 
This issue is an umbrella for the category of issues related to the mnemonics
handling as described in issue #67807. Calling of method setMnemonic() and
setDisplayedMnemonic() must be substituted by methods of class
org.openide.awt.Mnemonics.
Comment 1 _ rkubacki 2006-12-15 16:01:50 UTC 
Simple way how to find one char keys in bundles:

find <path> -name "*.properties" | xargs egrep -i '.*=.$'
Comment 2 Petr Jiricka 2007-08-06 13:33:37 UTC 
Marek Fukala pointed out to me that the following FAQ (last question on the page): http://a11y.netbeans.org/a11yFAQ.html
is outdated and incorrect. It should be updated to reflect the current recommendations. Also, there should be a HOWTO
for correcting mnemonics handling with Matisse - people I talked to did not have luck using Matisse for correcting the
mnemonics.
Comment 3 Marian Mirilovic 2007-08-07 09:33:59 UTC 
Agreed with Petr...

Jara, 
could you please update http://a11y.netbeans.org/a11yFAQ.html ? Also how-to for using Matisse for this change would be
very helpful.
Comment 4 Petr Jiricka 2007-08-07 09:46:24 UTC 
And here is also a helpful link to Adam's converter:

Comment 5 Peter Pis 2007-08-24 20:14:10 UTC 
IMHO the better component for tracking this issue would be "a11y" or "UI" because the primary purpose of the "ide"
component is for incoming issues that are expected to be processed and reassigned to the proper component.
Comment 6 Jaromir Uhrik 2007-09-10 09:57:28 UTC 
1/I have reassigned this issue to myself in order to avoid problems with processing of ide issues.
2/I have updated the document http://a11y.netbeans.org/a11yFAQ.html a couple of weeks ago so that the task of Marian is
no more pending
Comment 7 Marian Mirilovic 2011-10-14 08:14:03 UTC 
Too old - closing
