    • Type: Bug
    • Resolution: Fixed
    • Priority: P3
    • 1.4.0
    • Affects Version/s: 1.4.0
    • Component/s: client-libs
    • beta2
    • x86, sparc
    • solaris_8, windows_2000
    • Verified

      The source code JButtonDemo.java comes from the Java Swing Tutorial. It is
      attached. The problem is that ALT-E is not serving as a mnemonic for the
      rightmost button. The problem occurs on Windows 2000 and Sparc/Solaris 8.
      This is a regression, because the tutorial works with JDK 1.3.1.

      Copy ButtonDemo.java into your current working directory. Make a subdirectory
      called "images". Copy right.gif, left.gif, and middle.gif into images.
      Compile ButtonDemo.java and run it with java.

      Once you load ButtonDemo.class you will see a window. Make sure the
      ButtonDemo window has focus. Type ALT-M and verify that the middle button
      is listening. Type ALT-D to disable the middle button. Typing ALT-E
      should re-enable the middle button but does not.
