Description _ pkuzel 2004-01-12 17:48:23 UTC 
Please select mnemonic that does not clash with
&To Do. Two menuitems with same mnemonics causes
problems.

problems.
Comment 2 _ pkuzel 2004-01-13 08:57:53 UTC 
I do not have enough letters. Also utilities assigned the clashing one
(second). Resolve with our HIE guru if in doubt.
Comment 3 Marian Petras 2004-01-14 08:28:12 UTC 
In menu Windows, two items have the same mnemonic character:

    Search Results
    To Do

Comment 5 dpavlica 2004-01-22 17:42:49 UTC 
Use E or U mnemonic in the Search results Menu item.
E is better a bit...
Comment 6 Marian Petras 2004-01-23 07:42:42 UTC 
Which 'E' do you mean?

    S&earch Results
or
    Search R&esults  ?
Comment 7 Marian Petras 2004-01-23 13:55:13 UTC 
fixed in the trunk

'e' in word "Search" is now the mnemonic character, as suggested by
our UI engineer.
Comment 8 Jaromir Uhrik 2004-02-23 15:19:31 UTC 
Verified - in 200402191900; j2sdk1.4.2_03 there is no conflict with it.

Comment 10 Marian Petras 2004-11-29 13:45:53 UTC 
Reopened. This bug was broken again by fixing bug #44796 ("Change
Window menu according to UI specification (shortcuts changes)").
Apparently, the UI specification of the Window menu is bad.
Comment 11 Marian Petras 2004-11-29 14:30:13 UTC 
The UI specification has already been fixed sometime ago, so it is
correct now. It suggest 'u' as a mnemonic character for item "Search
Results".
Comment 12 Marian Petras 2004-11-29 14:31:59 UTC 
Fixed in the trunk, according to the latest UI specification ('u' as a
mnemonic character).

Comment 13 Marian Petras 2004-12-07 11:13:04 UTC
