Description ksilz 2007-09-26 15:21:54 UTC 
In the Java editor,[Ctrl]-[Z] doesn't trigger "Undo".  However, "Undo" works from the toolbar icon and from the menu.
Comment 1 Vitezslav Stejskal 2007-09-27 12:18:10 UTC 
It's working fine in a dev build. What shortcuts profile and keyboard layout are you using? Some keyboard layouts have
the letters Y and Z swapped. Could that be the issue?
Comment 2 ksilz 2007-09-28 03:19:15 UTC 
Ah, stupid me!  I'm using the Eclipse key binding, and I didn't even think that "[Ctrl]-[Z]" wouldn't be mapped to Undo.
 So the problem is that the Eclipse key binding had the non-existing key "UNDO" mapped to Undo.  I think this is a bug
because "[Ctrl]-[Z]" _is_ mapped to Undo in Eclipse, like everywhere else.
Comment 3 ksilz 2007-09-28 03:23:55 UTC 
I checked it out at a glance, and the following, rather basic shortcuts are not mapped to the same keys as in Eclipse,
when using the Eclipse key bindings in Netbeans:

- Undo: non-existing "Undo" instead of [Ctrl]-[Z] 
- Copy: non-existing "Copy" instead of [Ctrl]-[C] 
- Cut: non-existing "Cut" instead of [Ctrl]-[X]
- Paste: non-existing "Paste" instead of [Ctrl]-[Z]
- Find: non-existing "Find" instead of [Ctrl]-[F]

There's more (all of the refactorings are wrong).  Guys, when you call it the "Eclipse key bindings", then it should
actually have the Eclipse keys as well.

Please also review this user's table of 21 missing keyboard shortcuts
(key bindings) from the NetBeans' Eclipse profile:

Ok, let's track this problem in a single issue.
