This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
Steps to reproduce: 1) select node in "Explorer" and press "Alt-E" - the menu "Edit" will not open, when you try to open any other menu, the menu item with the same mnemonic as the menu has will be invoked (menu &Window, menu item &Windows) 2) when you are in Source Editor, "Alt-V" opens menu "View", but the focus is still in the editor; it's impossible to open menu Build "Alt-B" form Source Editor Just examples. Observed in NetBeans 3.3.1 RC2 build and main trunk build, on Solaris 8 and W2k on JDK1.4rc.
I believe this is a known JVM bug. We received a similar bug #17548 in the past and I spent a whole lot of time trying to find a workaround but no success. Marked this one as duplicate of #17548, there I had a note saying that it works fine on JDK 1.4beta, but according to jmzourek's descr that's not true. Feel free to reopen /increase prio of/ #17548 if you think we should try harder to solve this problem *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 17548 ***
