Description ionuion 2013-10-18 10:54:34 UTC 
Created attachment 141245 [details]
screencast

Environment:
Product Version: NetBeans IDE 7.4 (Build 201310111528)
Java: 1.7.0_45; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 24.45-b08
Runtime: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.7.0_45-b18
System: Mac OS X version 10.7.5 running on x86_64; UTF-8; en_US (nb)


Steps to reproduce:
1. Having a project open, open the Go to File dialog (e.g. shortcut on mac ctrl-shift-o)
2. Fill in the search field with the word 'build'
3. Hit the shortcut at 1. one more time > the text in the search field becomes right aligned
4. Fill in a period > the period is printed before the word 'build'. That's useful when typing arabic I guess :)

Expected result
the shortcut ignored at step 3.

Actual result
undesired change in display described at steps 3. and 4.

Unfortunately it's not a bug, it's a feature :-)
The Ctrl+Shift+O is Java switch to right to left writing, it works in any JTextField not just in Go To File.
I would be able to disable it in a key map but it will break this accessibility feature.

Thanks a lot Tomas :)
Indeed, I tried various fields in NetBeans IDE and another java application and that reflects exactly what you said. 
I learned something today...
