      • setAccelerator

        public void setAccelerator(KeyStroke keyStroke)
        Sets the key combination which invokes the menu item's action listeners without navigating the menu hierarchy. It is the UI's responsibility to install the correct action. Note that when the keyboard accelerator is typed, it will work whether or not the menu is currently displayed.
        Parameters:
        keyStroke - the KeyStroke which will serve as an accelerator
      • getAccelerator

        public KeyStroke getAccelerator()

        protected void actionPropertyChanged(Action action,
                                 String propertyName)
        Updates the button's state in response to property changes in the associated action. This method is invoked from the PropertyChangeListener returned from createActionPropertyChangeListener. Subclasses do not normally need to invoke this. Subclasses that support additional Action properties should override this and configurePropertiesFromAction.

        Refer to the table at Swing Components Supporting Action for a list of the properties this method sets.

        Overrides:
        actionPropertyChanged in class AbstractButton
        Parameters:
        action - the Action associated with this button
        propertyName - the name of the property that changed
