Hi all,

I have a JOptionPane with a YES button and a NO button. All I want to do is be able to press the left or right button on the keyboard to change the focus on the buttons. By using the mouse it works. Is there some kind of Listener I can use?

Here is my code :

====================================================

int response = JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(null,"Are you sure you want to exit","Exit?",

JOptionPane.YES_NO_OPTION,JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE);

if(response == JOptionPane.YES_OPTION){
System.exit(1);
}else {
//do nothing
}

=====================================================

You could TRY a keylistener but I'm not sure that'll work out exactly like you want. There should already be a mechanism built in that changes components when tab is pressed. I would stick to that if I were you.

From Windows, usually hitting TAB will change focus between components. If you must use the arrow keys, you could add a KeyListener which changes the focus to the button components. I would probably make a new class and extend the JOptionPane
