I have a submenu populated with some actions, however the name that appears on them is not desirable. Instead of "Copy" and "Paste", I get the less desirable: copy-to-clipboard, paste-to-clipboard. I need to change that.
//Submenu
SubMenu = new JMenu("Paste");
menuOptions.add(SubMenu);
Action textActionCopy = new DefaultEditorKit.CopyAction();
Action textActionPaste = new DefaultEditorKit.PasteAction();
//Copy
SubMenu.add(textActionCopy);
//Paste
SubMenu.add(textActionPaste);
How about create an MenuItem and add the action then add to menu..
Sample:
//Submenu
subMenu = new JMenu("Paste");
menuOptions.add(SubMenu);
JMenuItem cut = new JMenuItem(new DefaultEditorKit.CutAction());
JMenuItem copy = new JMenuItem(new DefaultEditorKit.CopyAction());
JMenuItem paste = new JMenuItem(new DefaultEditorKit.PasteAction());
subMenu .add(cut);
paste.setText("Paste");
cut.setText("Cut");
copy.setText("Copy");
subMenu .add(copy);
subMenu .add(paste);
Also follow the Java convention for variable names
