Description William Leonard 2008-02-11 17:41:39 UTC

When I'm looking at the Keymap Actions in the Options dialog, it would be useful to press the shortcut key to 1) be
taken to that action corresponding to that shortcut and 2) determine that the shortcut I may be looking to add isn't
already assigned to an action.

>2) determine that the shortcut I may be looking to add isn't already assigned to an action.

That is already working.  If you select an action and then click Add it brings up a little dialog box where you can type
the key strokes you want to map to that action.  If you type keystrokes that are already assigned, it will tell you the
action that is already using those keystrokes.

A big +1, however, on the first suggestion.  I just got a similar comment on my blog (fourth comment):

From talking to Sandip, it sounds like his plugin:
http://plugins.netbeans.org/PluginPortal/faces/PluginDetailPage.jsp?pluginid=1189 provides most or all of the
functionality requested here.
