invisible shortcuts

[agent613]

I have created a command in my commands-context.XML file and have defined a label for it in messages.properties with an accelerator attached. if I add the command to a menu, everything works fine and the shortcut key executes the command executor. however, I don't want this command to show up in a menu or anywhere at all, really. I only want a shortcut to work. It seems that the shortcut only gets enabled when the command is part of a menu. Is there any way I can enable it on its own?

Thanks,
Brian

I couldn't figure out a way to do it using only the XML, but here's how to do it programmatically.

In my life cycle adviser, I edited the following code:

final ActionCommand ac = window.getCommandManager().getActionCommand("priceSourceHCommand");
window.getMenuBar().getControl().getInputMap(JComponent.WHEN_IN_FOCUSED_WINDOW).put(ac.getAccelerator(), "priceSourceHCommand");
window.getMenuBar().getControl().getActionMap().put("priceSourceHCommand", ac.getActionAdapter());

If anyone knows a way to do this declaratively, please speak up.
