I use netbeans.
In "Build" menu there is an action named "Stop Build/Run".
I assign to this JMenuItem the accelerator "Escape".
In "Build" menu there is an action named "Build Main Project".
I assign to this JMenuItem the accelerator "F7".

How I this possible in Java?
I try this in my programs MANY times but nothing.
Single keys doesn't work like accelerators.
They need a modifier key.

So, how the netbeans do this?

thanks

PS: I want to add an "F1" accelerator to menuitem:   help->help index
