Rangi Keen created NETBEANS-1833:
------------------------------------
Summary: Typeahead selection in comboboxes only works when using
lower case
Key: NETBEANS-1833
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-1833
Project: NetBeans
Issue Type: Bug
Components: platform - Property Editors
Affects Versions: 9.0, 8.2
Reporter: Rangi Keen
Attachments: Typeahead.patch
In any combobox edited property, if any of the items contain upper case
letters, typing the value in the property sheet will not match them unless you
use all lowercase letters.
As a specific example:
# Create a new JFrame form in NetBeans
# Select the cursor property. Note that the options all start with an upper
case letter.
# Start typing the text of an unselected value using an upper case letter
(e.g. start typing "Wait Cursor").
Note that the "Wait Cursor" item will not be selected. However, if you type
"wait cursor" in lower case, the "Wait Cursor" item will be selected.
Additionally, when an item is already selected in the middle of the list,
typing a value should match items after that point. For example, in the cursor
property example, if "Wait Cursor" is currently selected, typing "north" should
match "Northwest Resize Cursor" because it follows "Wait Cursor" but it instead
matches "North Resize Cursor" which comes before "Wait Cursor". This behavior
would then match that implemented in standard combo box type-ahead matching
(see {{javax.swing.JComboBox.DefaultKeySelectionManager.selectionForKey}}).
See [^Typeahead.patch] for a possible update.
