How can you reassign a windows action to a key combination in Java? I want to basically share the default windows 'Page Down' action to a key combination such as 'control D'.

This is what I have so far:

KeyStroke addedKeyStroke = KeyStroke.getKeyStroke("control D");
getInputMap().put(addedKeyStroke, "page-down");

However, nothing happens when I press ctrl-L. Please could someone let me know what needs to be done to get this working?

Thanks,

EDIT

KeyStroke addedKeyStroke = KeyStroke.getKeyStroke("control D");
InputMap inputMap = myTable.getInputMap(JComponent.WHEN_FOCUSED);
inputMap.put(addedKeyStroke , "scrollDownChangeSelection");

  • Im afraid none of those options seem to work. I'm trying in a JTable – maloney Feb 26 '14 at 13:20
  • I have just managed to fix this. Used 'WHEN_FOCUSED' and changed the 3rd line to: inputMap.put(addedKeyStroke, "scrollDownChangeSelection"); – maloney Feb 26 '14 at 13:29
