Description Petr Dvorak 2008-06-28 21:59:27 UTC 
Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200806281203)
Java: 1.6.0_10-beta; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 11.0-b11
System: Linux version 2.6.24-19-generic running on i386; UTF-8; en_US (nb)

If you try to change the shortcut for "Comment" operation in the Tools > Options > Keymaps to "Ctrl+C" (default shortcut
for copy), you get no warning in the dialog. Furthermore, there is no way how to take this change back - if you remove
the shortcut from the "Comment" operation, "Ctrl+C" does not work for the Copy anymore, you need to clean the userdir to
get the default settings (or maybe just dig in the userdir...)...

I think this is a side effect of issue #133618, which complaints about missing keybindings for copy/paste operations and
others.
Comment 2 Jan Becicka 2008-07-14 12:23:56 UTC 
And we need to fix it together with 123467.

I will reopen the issue just because there is still part of the thing mentioned in the summary. If you try to override
default Copy shortcut (Ctrl+C), you get no warning in the Keymaps dialog.

Now there is the nice part:

1. Try to assign a Ctrl+C shortcut to "Comment" action.
-> Ctrl+C works for comment, not for copy

2. Unassign the Ctrl+C from "Comment" action and assign it to "Help>About"
-> Ctrl+C works for copy, it does not bring up the About dialog

(I would personally forbid to override Ctrl+C and similar shortcuts)
Comment 4 Petr Dvorak 2008-07-31 18:38:49 UTC 
Did you manage to unassign the shortcut "Ctrl+Shift+T" from "Comment" action once you assinged it Ctrl+C shortcut? If
yes, could you then try to add some other shortcut to Comment action (Ctrl+Alt+M, it does not matter now...)?

After I once assigned Ctrl+C to the Comment action, I haven't seen other state than one of those two:

1. either no shortcut is assigned to Comment, or 
2. at least two shortcuts are assigned to Comment action, Ctrl+Shift+T is always one of them...

which build do you use? it works fine for me in Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 20080731042603)
Comment 6 Vitezslav Stejskal 2008-08-01 11:05:24 UTC 
It also seems to be working fine in my dev build.
Comment 7 Petr Dvorak 2008-10-21 16:48:20 UTC 
Not reproducible in latest dev build -> closing as WORKSFORME.
