JavaFX Mnemonics

[deep jasper]

PLEASE someone tell me that having mnemonics constantly enabled is possible.. There's gotta be a way to tell if mnemonics are active or not and keep them enabled.. Someone here has the forbidden knowledge.. tell me your secrets...

In JavaFX, mnemonics are typically enabled by default, allowing users to activate certain controls using keyboard shortcuts. To check if mnemonics are active in your JavaFX application, you can use the Platform.isImplicitExit() method. This method returns true if mnemonics are enabled and false if they are not.

To keep mnemonics constantly enabled in your JavaFX application, you can set the implicitExit property of the Platform class to false. This will ensure that mnemonics remain active throughout the execution of your application. Here is an example code snippet:

Platform.setImplicitExit(false);

By setting implicitExit to false, you can ensure that mnemonics stay enabled in your JavaFX application. Just remember to test your application thoroughly to ensure that this setting does not interfere with any other functionality.

With this approach, you can have mnemonics constantly enabled in your JavaFX application and provide a more efficient user experience for keyboard-savvy users.

😮 Did the bot just give me the cheat code?!

I don't think so.. :/

[opal rampart]

Is that what you were asking? Keyboard shortcuts?

[deep jasper]

Yee. I think I got it sorted out tho.

Just attached a key listener to the stage for the alt key. I artificially press it once, then set a boolean saying it's active. Once it's active, all presses of ALT ARE CONSUMED!!! 😈 I also have a focus listener attached to the stage, if it loses focus, the boolean is reset, and the artificial press is done again... ALT IS CONSUMED for all of eternity..

Dangit.. it still breaks a bit.. D:

Uh... So I haven't messed with jfx mnemonics, but it should function normally. If you experience them not working you should look for whether key presses are getting consumed before they can reach the stage
