[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #60869] Ampersand character in uimenu label

[Rik]

Update of bug #60869 (project octave):

                Priority:              5 - Normal => 3 - Low                
                  Status:                    None => Confirmed

Follow-up Comment #2:

Confirmed.

Can you determine exactly which conditions generate a keyboard shortcut?  For
example, does the '&' character have to be preceded by whitespace as well?


H = figure;
uimenu (H, 'Label', 'A&B');


Is the Label that is displayed 'A&B' or 'AB' with 'B' being a keyboard
shortcut?

Also, is it any whitespace that stops interpretation of the ampersand as a
shortcut?


H = figure;
uimenu (H, 'Label', sprintf ('A&\tB'));


Is the label 'A& B' or does Matlab make a Tab the shortcut key?
