Description
Even when the cursor shows up in a particular UI element, such as a text field in the Data Access View or Histogram, pressing ctrl+a selects all nodes and transactions in the graph. Properly scoping the select all function to just the element in focus would make it faster to copy/paste data into and out of Constellation.
Steps to Reproduce
- Create a new graph with a few nodes and transactions
- Open Data Access View
- Place the cursor in any string plugin parameter and type a few characters
- Press ctrl+a
Expected behaviour: Ctrl+a only highlights everything in the current scope (in this case, the string parameter)
Actual behaviour: Ctrl+a highlights everything in the current scope as well as everything in the graph
Reproduces how often: 100%

@sol695510 have you tried
VisualGraphTopComponent
,JavaFxTopComponent
andSwingTopComponent
? TheVisualGraphTopComponent
is the Top Component for the analytic graph and the other 2 Top Components are used by the various views.I am not a fan of adding the
KeyListener
to theGraphNode
though but if you are doing it a test then that is fine. TheGraphNode
is the bridge between NetBeans and the Constellation frameworks and I’d like to keep that as lean as possible. Let me know how you go.
