Hi all! I'm newbie in swing programming... I've a "Ok" button (JButton) that once pressed does something. I'd like doing the same thing when a keyboard key is pressed (enter key, in this case) I've tried like this: buttonOk.addActionListener(this); buttonOk.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER); but method actionPerformes is only invoked by mouse click over button and not by enter-key too Thanks in advance! > Hi all! > [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > Thanks in advance! Your swing class have to implements KeyListener (I think it did) and you have to set a method void keyPressed(KeyEvent evt) look the java api and/or java almanac for code sample >Your swing class have to implements KeyListener (I think it did) >and you have to set a method void keyPressed(KeyEvent evt) >look the java api and/or java almanac for code sample see http://mindprod.com/products.html#KEYPLAYER for sample code.

The mnemonic is the key which when combined with the look and feel's mouseless modifier (usually Alt) will activate this button if focus is contained somewhere within this button's ancestor window. =================== Note the bit about 'when combined with the look and feel's mouseless modifier'.
