Adding shortcut to JMenu


I want to add a shortcut to JMenu (not JMenuItem) but I don't know how... Please, help...


Solution

  • Try this:

        JMenu actionMenu = new JMenu("Actions");
        actionMenu.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_A);
    

    This way you can access it by pressing key ALT + A.
