Application wide keyboard shortcut – Java Swing

by

For each window, use JComponent.registerKeyboardAction with a condition of WHEN_IN_FOCUSED_WINDOW. Alternatively use:

JComponent.getInputMap(WHEN_IN_FOCUSED_WINDOW).put(keyStroke, command);
JComponent.getActionMap().put(command,action);

as described in the registerKeyboardAction API docs.
