John updated NETBEANS-1850:
---------------------------
Environment: macOS Mojave on a Macbook Air Early 2015, Netbeans Binary
(was: macOS Mojave, Netbeans Binary)
Description:
*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.
After re-opening Netbeans, the program does recognise the option key again
until a bracket is opened.
*Steps to reproduce the issue*
Make sure you are using Netbeans later than 8.2 on macOS.
# Open any project. Note the option-key is working, e.g. by navigating your
code using the option key and the left and right arrows.
# Type a *{* or *[* at any position in your project.
# Try using the option (alt)-key again in Netbeans. You will notice the key
seems broken.
# Re-open netbeans, try to use alt-key again and note that it works again.
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.
*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.
