John created NETBEANS-1850:
------------------------------
Summary: macOS: Option (alt) key not recognised after typing
brackets { or [
Key: NETBEANS-1850
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-1850
Project: NetBeans
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 9.0, 10.0
Environment: macOS Mojave, Netbeans Binary
Reporter: John
*The issue*
This issue concerns macOS only.
The option key (also known as the alt-key) is no longer recognised by Netbeans
after opening a curly or squared bracket, i.e. after typing *{* or *[*.
Netbeans automatically closes brackets by default. However, even with this
feature disabled, the alt-key still stops working after pressing one of these
keys.
*Steps to reproduce the issue*
The bug can be confirmed by opening the keymap settings and searching "in
shortcuts". When pressing the option key in this field, the field stays blank.
After re-opening Netbeans, the program does recognise the option key again
until a bracket is opened.
*About the issue*
The issue started appearing in Netbeans 9 and is still present in Netbeans 10.
It is not present in Netbeans 8.2.
