Name: jk109818 Date: 03/21/2002 FULL PRODUCT VERSION : java version "1.4.0" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.0-b92) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.0-b92, mixed mode) Observed on RedHat Linux 6.1, JDK 1.4.0 and 1.3.1_02, kernel 2.2.12, Enlightenment window manager. Same on Win2K/1.4.0. A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM : In Metal L&F, I would expect that the gesture Ctrl-Shift-Click on a list or tree would extend a selection from the previously selected item (like Shift-Click does) without clearing other disjoint selections (like Ctrl-Click does). At least on Windows, this is normal behavior, and I expected it to work in Metal L&F as well, but it did not. Compare NetBeans/Forte for Java bug, closed as a Swing problem: http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=3714 STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM : Run demo program. Click "one" in the list. Ctrl-click "three". Ctrl-shift-click "five". EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR : Expected: one, three, four, and five are selected. Actual: one, three, and five are selected, but four is not - same as if the last step had been to ctrl-click "five" without the Shift modifier. This bug can be reproduced always. ---------- BEGIN SOURCE ---------- import javax.swing.*; public class TreeSelectionTest { public static void main(String[] args) { JTree tree = new JTree(new Object[] { "one", "two", "three", "four", "five", }); JList list = new JList(new Object[] { "one", "two", "three", "four", "five", }); JFrame f = new JFrame("Test tree selection"); f.getContentPane().add(new JSplitPane(JSplitPane.HORIZONTAL_SPLIT, tree, list)); f.pack(); f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); f.setVisible(true); } } ---------- END SOURCE ---------- CUSTOMER WORKAROUND : If no long ranges (only short ones) need be selected, just use Ctrl-click for every item. If only one long range need be selected, do it first with Shift-click, then add individual items with Ctrl-click. If more than one long range needs to be selected, you are out of luck.
