Category: User interface Group: v8 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Nick Greeves (ngreeves84) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: OS X menu key is wrong Initial Comment: In Mac OS X the keyboard key used to produce a context sensitive menu is the Control key. Thus users would expect to hold down Control to generate the popup menu in Jmol images in web pages. In fact the Command key is required. This will confuse users and degrade their experience. If the key could be switched to Control that would be much better. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Nick Greeves (ngreeves84) Date: 2004-01-02 14:27 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=941641 The general Apple developer guidance is here "Contextual menus open when the user presses the Control key while clicking an appropriate interface element or selection." http://developer.apple.com/documentation/UserExperience/ Conceptual/OSXHIGuidelines/XHIGMenus/ chapter_15_section_5.html and specific to Java here http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Java/Conceptual/ Java131Development/x_platform/chapter_5_section_5.html#// apple_ref/doc/uid/TP30000708/TPXREF116 I have a two button mouse (Wacom) whch can be programmed to do anything on right-click. I'd be pleased to use it to help check the event flags if I can. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Michael T Howard (michaelthoward) Date: 2004-01-02 00:41 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=608250 Is there an Apple GUI document that describes what the behavior is supposed to be? I need to find a Mac OSX system, plug in a two button mouse and see what event flags are set when you press the right button. I may be wrong, but it sounds to me like Apple's GUI directly conflicts with the Java spec. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=379133&aid=868937&group_id=23629 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.
