windowlicker - issue #7
Windowlicker does not cope with Look-and-Feels that violate platform conventions
Posted on Oct 7, 2009 by

For example, the Metal look and feel uses Control-C for copy on MacOS instead of Command-C. The AWT Toolkit reports that Command-C is the shortcut key, so the component drivers do not issue shortcuts correctly when the app is using the Metal look and feel.
The solution is for a driver to find a keystroke that corresponds to a named shortcut on the component's input map and then turn that keystroke into a gesture.
