Java on OSX: wrong accelerator key icon in Swing menu using Netbeans GUI builder

问题


I created a small application using Netbeans 8.1 on OSX. It contains just two menus "file" and "edit". The purpose is to add full copy / cut / paste functionality to the edit menu later on. I want to use Netbeans GUI builder but i encounter the following problems:

1st try:

I created a small example with Netbeans GUI builder (Swing GUI Forms -> JDialog). I just added a menu bar to the JFrame and the a JMenuItem in the GUI builder and some code to the constructor. The result is:

As you can see i get a text 'meta' instead of the Apple key '⌘'.

The source code is NewJDialogGUI.java:

import java.awt.Toolkit;
import java.awt.event.KeyEvent;
import javax.swing.AbstractAction;
import javax.swing.Action;
import javax.swing.KeyStroke;
import javax.swing.text.DefaultEditorKit;

public class NewJDialogGUI extends javax.swing.JDialog {
    private static final int MASK
        = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getMenuShortcutKeyMask();

    public NewJDialogGUI(java.awt.Frame parent, boolean modal) {
        super(parent, modal);

        initComponents();

        AbstractAction copyAction = new DefaultEditorKit.CopyAction();
        copyAction.putValue(Action.ACCELERATOR_KEY,KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_C, MASK));


        this.jMenuItem1.setAction(copyAction);
        this.jMenuItem1.setText("Copy");
        this.jMenuItem1.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_C);

    }

    @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
    // <editor-fold defaultstate="collapsed" desc="Generated Code">

        jMenuItem1 = new javax.swing.JMenuItem();

        setDefaultCloseOperation(javax.swing.WindowConstants.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE);

        jMenu1.setText("File");
        jMenuBar1.add(jMenu1);

        jMenu2.setText("Edit");

        jMenuItem1.setText("jMenuItem1");
        jMenu2.add(jMenuItem1);

        jMenuBar1.add(jMenu2);

        setJMenuBar(jMenuBar1);

        javax.swing.GroupLayout layout = new javax.swing.GroupLayout(getContentPane());
        getContentPane().setLayout(layout);
        layout.setHorizontalGroup(

2nd try:

I created another small example with Netbeans GUI builder (Swing GUI Forms -> Application sample form). The result is:

Same result like in 1st try.

3rd try:

Finally i created an example with Netbeans (Empty Java file) with source code slightly modified from here. The result is:

The source code is:

import java.awt.EventQueue;
import java.awt.Toolkit;
import java.awt.event.KeyEvent;
import javax.swing.AbstractAction;
import javax.swing.Action;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JMenu;
import javax.swing.JMenuBar;
import javax.swing.JMenuItem;
import javax.swing.JTextField;
import javax.swing.KeyStroke;
import javax.swing.text.DefaultEditorKit;

/**
 * @see https://stackoverflow.com/a/34830519/230513
 */
public class NewEmptyGUI {

    private static final int MASK = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getMenuShortcutKeyMask();

    private void display() {
        JFrame f = new JFrame("Test");
        f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        JMenuBar menuBar = new JMenuBar();
        JMenu menu = new JMenu("Edit");
        menu.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_E);
        JMenuItem menuItem = new JMenuItem();
        AbstractAction copyAction = new DefaultEditorKit.CopyAction();
        copyAction.putValue(Action.ACCELERATOR_KEY,
                KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_C, MASK));
        menuItem.setAction(copyAction);
        menuItem.setText("Copy");
        menu.add(menuItem);
        menuBar.add(menu);
        f.setJMenuBar(menuBar);
        f.add(new JTextField(10));
        f.pack();
        f.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
        f.setVisible(true);
    }


    public static void main(String[] args) {
        EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {

            @Override
            public void run() {

                new NewEmptyGUI().display();
            }
        });
    }
}

This is the expected result but the whole menu infrastrucure was coded manually, which is not my intention. I want to use Netbeans GUI Builder. Do you have any hints for me?

I am using JDK7 and OSX Yosemite. Look and feel is "Nimbus". I only paste the example code or 1st and 3rd try here, because it is quite a lot of code.


回答1:


I found solutions for the described problem.

Solution 1 (Change look and feel):

The code example shows how to replace the "Nimbus look and feel" in the Netbeans created code. It will also set the correct keyboard shortcuts for clipboard actions like copy & paste with Apple key '⌘' instead of the "Control-Key" automatically:

public static void main(String args[]) {

    try {
        for (javax.swing.UIManager.LookAndFeelInfo info : javax.swing.UIManager.getInstalledLookAndFeels()) {
            /*
            if ("Nimbus".equals(info.getName())) {
                javax.swing.UIManager.setLookAndFeel(info.getClassName());
                break;
            }
            */
            if ("Mac OS X".equals(info.getName())) {
                javax.swing.UIManager.setLookAndFeel(info.getClassName());
                break;
            }
        }
    } catch (ClassNotFoundException ex) {
        java.util.logging.Logger.getLogger(App_Avaprism.class.getName()).log(java.util.logging.Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
    } catch (InstantiationException ex) {
        java.util.logging.Logger.getLogger(App_Avaprism.class.getName()).log(java.util.logging.Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
    } catch (IllegalAccessException ex) {
        java.util.logging.Logger.getLogger(App_Avaprism.class.getName()).log(java.util.logging.Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
    } catch (javax.swing.UnsupportedLookAndFeelException ex) {
        java.util.logging.Logger.getLogger(App_Avaprism.class.getName()).log(java.util.logging.Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
    }


    java.awt.EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
        public void run() {
            new App_Avaprism().setVisible(true);
        }
    });

Solution 2:

If you want to stay with "Nimbus" things become more difficult. At first: I found no way to replace text 'meta'. At least you might want to have the clipboard shortcuts working with the Apple key '⌘'.

For your main application put the following code into the constructor:

int MASK = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getMenuShortcutKeyMask();

InputMap im = (InputMap) UIManager.get("TextField.focusInputMap");
    im.put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_C, MASK), DefaultEditorKit.copyAction);
    im.put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_V, MASK), DefaultEditorKit.pasteAction);
    im.put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_X, MASK), DefaultEditorKit.cutAction);

Unfortunately: If you start other modal dialogs from this main app the short cuts won't work. In this case you may try to use the KeyEventDispatcher to establish a global redirection of keystrokes for the whole app. More information about that can be found here and here.
