Access keys are not shown

[Klaus Bonadt]

Hi,

when I define an access key via the ampersand letter in the text property,
this is shown after the user has already used this keystroke.
I wonder whether it is possible to show the access keys from the beginning?

Regards,
Klaus

In the display options you can check an option to always underline the
mnemonics. This behavior is "by design" since Windows 2000.

Thanks Herfried,

Could you also provide the name of the option?

Right click on the desktop, select "Properties" from the context
menu. On the 4th tab (in the German version of Windows XP) you will find
a button labelled "Effects...". In this dialog you must check the last
option in order to show the mnemonics.
