how to use key on pressed in java FXML?I want to use shortcut keys to do button action

Question

I want to use shortcut keys to do action.

<Button layoutX="554.0" layoutY="411.0" mnemonicParsing="false" onAction="#edit" onKeyPressed="#edit_key" prefHeight="27.0" prefWidth="89.0" text="Edit" />

FXML code

@FXML
private void edit_key(KeyEvent event) {
        if (event.getCode() == KeyCode.ENTER) {
        //to do button action               
        }

}

Answer 1

Here is and example to capture a Key Press on a modal form
In the FXML Editor under the Code section set onKeyPressed="#onPress" our base container is an Anchor Pane. Now in the Controller Class for that Anchor Pane use this method

    @FXML
private void onPress(KeyEvent ev) throws IOException{
    kc = ev.getCode();
    if(kc == KeyCode.ESCAPE){
        strTRANSFER = txtEnterValue.getText();
        onBack();
    }   
}

You can use what ever KeyCode you like
