Accelerators
are used to give keyboard short cuts like ALT + F, CTRL + N etc., An
accelerator is the bit-wise OR of zero or more modifier masks and a key.
Examples:
SWT.MOD1
| SWT.MOD2 | 'T', SWT.MOD3 | SWT.F2
SWT.CONTROL
| SWT.SHIFT | 'T',
SWT.ALT
| SWT.F2
The
default value is zero, indicating that the menu item does not have an
accelerator.
Following
snippet adds short cut ALT + F to the file menu.
MenuItem
fileMenuItem = new MenuItem(menu, SWT.CASCADE);
fileMenuItem.setText("File");
//
SWT.ALT is not working, but MOD1 is working
fileMenuItem.setAccelerator(SWT.MOD1
+ 'F');
Following
is the complete working example.
