Hi Carolyn – I am seeing the mnemonics
underlined on the menu bar. But I am still unable to see the mnemonics
underlined on my context menu, either associated with a tree viewer specified
declaratively, or associated with a Canvas component specified
programmatically.
Thanks for your help – james barnett

not seeing character underlined when setting mnemonics
With Eclipse open in front of you, and no dialogs open
or anything, press and hold the "ALT" key.
Do
you see the mnemonics underlined in the menu bar (F for File, E for Edit, ...)?
Now,
still holding the "ALT" key down, press "F". The File menu
should drop down.
Do
you see the mnemonics underlined in the File menu's menu items (N for New, etc,
...)?
If
not, then file a bug report.

I
see the visual hint in MS Word and am seeing the behavior Mark describes, but
still no visual indicator on my menu items....
Any other ideas, or should I file a bug?
Thanks -- james barnett

I have noticed mnemonics sometimes do not show up
in dialogs until you "do
something". For example, if you bring
up the Eclipse Preferences dialog
in XP the mnemonics on the Restore Defaults and
Apply buttons does not
appear until you do something with the keyboard, such
as press the Tab
key.
The mnemonics work, you just do not see the visual
hint.

Try a native application.
