Hi Roderick, The standard way in Java to get a button from a dialog to respond to the ENTER key is to make it the default button in the JDialog like:

JDialog.getRootPane().setDefaultButton(btnSearch);

What exactly is the context of your customization? Are you implementing your custom Swing dialog and showing it when the user performs a certain action in Oxygen?

Hi,

I encounter some strange behaviour in an extension I wrote.

I made a search button respond to the enter key. In Eclipse it responds immediately, but in oXygen a user has to use the enter key twice to make the extension respond.

I did this to make it work:

btnSearch.registerKeyboardAction(btnSearch.getActionForKeyStroke(KeyStroke./getKeyStroke/(KeyEvent./VK_SPACE/, 0, *false*)), KeyStroke./getKeyStroke/(KeyEvent./VK_ENTER/, 0, *false*), JComponent./WHEN_IN_FOCUSED_WINDOW/);

btnSearch.registerKeyboardAction(btnSearch.getActionForKeyStroke(KeyStroke./getKeyStroke/(KeyEvent./VK_SPACE/, 0, *true*)), KeyStroke./getKeyStroke/(KeyEvent./VK_ENTER/, 0, *true*), JComponent./WHEN_IN_FOCUSED_WINDOW/);

btnSearch.addActionListener(*this*);

What should I do to make it respond immediately in oXygen?

Kind regards,

Roderik Dernison
