Button mnemonic does not show when first drawn.... [message #448248] Wed, 05 January 2005 19:58 Go to next message

I set the mnemonic for my button with

button.setText("&Add");

Keyboard shortcut Alt+A works fine. But the mnemonic character 'A' is not
underscored when the button is first drawn. If I hit tab or alt key, the
underscore starts to show. I checked my tab order. It is correct. A previous
newsgroup posting
http://dev.eclipse.org/newslists/news.eclipse.platform.swt/m sg03199.html
mentions that the problem is due to "Hide keyboard navigation...". Is this a
preference setting in Eclipse or a property that is set by default on the
widget. How can I unset it? Can someone explain? Thanks!

Isn't that a setting in windows XP itself. I think there is a windows
setting for "hide underscores" in control panel, display properties. then
select appearance tab and then effects on windows XP.
