Hi Prasanta,
In case of JMenuItem, there are two ways to add key shortcuts
1.
JMenuItem newMenuItem = new JMenuItem("New");
newMenuItem.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_N);
In this case, the event is triggered if the N key is pressed. The modifiers are
not used in this and pressing only N will work. So ALT or ALT_GRAPH is not
required. These shortcut only work if the menu containing the given menu item
is expanded.
2.
JMenuItem newMenuItem = new JMenuItem("New");
newMenuItem.setAccelerator(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke( KeyEvent.VK_N,
ActionEvent.ALT_MASK));
In this case we are setting the accelerator key. In this case the key N will
work with the modifier passed here. So the user is explicitly telling whether
to use ALT, ALT_GRAPH or ALT+ALT+GRAPH. So I think we don’t need to change
anything here. The menu containing the menu item does not have to be expanded
in this case.
Please let me know what do you think about this.
Regards,
Pankaj Bansal

Hi Pankaj,
looks good. but it still does not test JMenuItem as I can see. Did you check if
you have some menu items inside JMenu and set mnemonic, does Right Alt key
works?
