#19 Mac Dvorak-Qwerty breaks Shortcuts
Using the Dvorak-Qwerty keyboard, Shortcuts map to the wrong key.
Dvorak-Qwerty is designed so that people can touchtype using the
Dvorak keyboard, but use the keys written on their keyboards when
they're typing Ctrl- and Cmd-key combinations and are more likely to
be looking at the keyboard. For example, the Qwerty B is X when
typing on a Dvorak keyboard. But using Dvorak-Qwerty, Meta-X is
done by pressing the Qwerty X, not the Dvorak X.
Even though KeyTypedEvents show this correctly (ie, pressing
Command-B in Dvorak-Qwerty triggers a KeyTypedEvent whose
keyChar is 'b' and whose modifers is Command), Shortcuts are
confused.
I've been playing with setAccelerator to see if I can figure a
workaround, but nothing so far. I know it's possible to do it right,
because even though Eclipse doesn't, jEdit does. :-)
Propatech Computer Solutions 28 Michigan Avenue Corio VIC 3214 Australia 03 5275 6738 Thank you for the sensible critique. Me my neighbour were preparing to do some research about that. We got a good book on that matter from our local library and most books exactly where not as influensive as your information. I am incredibly glad to see such data which I was searching for a long time.
