Description Michael Desmond CLA 2004-10-09 10:16:16 EDT
Implement accelerator support in draw2d labels.

1. Putting a & before a letter in the Label text displays an accelerator.

2. Alt + accelerator key gives focus to the next figure(sibling).

Thanks

This could be done by having the Canvas receive a TraverseEvent, and then 
creating a lightweight version of the event to forward to every figure. Note 
that there are lots of figures, so this would be a performance problem f it 
were enabled by default.

Clients can implement this feature on top of draw2d already by changing the way 
label draws, and creating some traverse interface that their figure implements 
and doing a tree search for instances of that interface.

LATER and REMIND resolutions will be going away with the upgrade of Bugzilla to the latest Bugzilla 3.4.  They are no longer part of the default Bugzilla installation. See http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/eclipse.org-committers/msg00778.html for the announcement.

As a result 
RESOLVED + REMIND OR LATER 
will be changed to
RESOLVED + WONTFIX

This unfortunately also means I need to REOPEN and then RESOLVE as WONTFIX

Sorry for the inconvenience.
