Fix the download shortcut #9

Closed f4ngy closed 10 years ago

f4ngy commented 10 years ago

F6 is supposed to download code to the robot..it doesn't seem to do anything right now. We need to figure out what's wrong with it and fix it.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8243720/is-there-a-swing-element-which-has-f6-as-a-default-accelerator possible lead. Since all the other hotkeys are working, I think it's likely that something else is using f6.

I have confirmed that it's a problem specifically with using f6. If I change the hotkey to use a different trigger (i.e. f7), it works fine. I didn't see a JSplitPane in the project so I'm not sure what other element is using f6 as an accelerator.

I'm not sure if we just want to use a different command for download or if we want to look further into what is hijaking the f6 calls. I think for now I will switch it to f7 and if we really want f6 we can look into that more.

edit: actually I found a JSplitPane so I'll see if I can remove the f6 hotkey from it.

edit2: Removing the hotkey from the JSplitPane's solved the problems, marking this issue as closed.
