version of the IDE?

BTW the dialog does not belong to core.  It's javadoc module.  Please
try to choose the correct component next time you'll file bug report.
 core is not a kitchen sink for all bugs in the IDE

I've reproduced on Build 200112180331.
Would you check if the first character is not used as mnemonic key?

By localization, the first character becomes no-ascii character. As a
result, the mnemonic key doesn't work by localization. To fix this
problem, we need to set two resource bundle messages, one is for
caption, another is for mnemonic.
  Example=TestString
  Example_Mnemonic=T

And we should use like this:
myButton.setText(myBundle.getString("Example"));
myButton.setMnemonic(myBundle.getString("Example_Mnemonic").charAt(0).

I guess other many objects are implemented like above.
The following line does not work with localized version, because the
first character is not an alphanumeric because it's replaced to
multi-byte Japanese character.

myButton.setMnemonic(myResourceBundle.getString("Example").charAt(0));

This seems to be fixed in NB Beta 6.
Comment 5 Keiichi Oono 2002-02-22 13:04:58 UTC 
Verified on FFJ Build 020221_1
Comment 6 Jesse Glick 2002-12-23 16:35:53 UTC 
Consistent use of the I18N keyword.
Comment 7 Quality Engineering 2003-07-01 13:35:25 UTC 
Resolved for 3.3.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
