gov.nasa.arc.mct.fastplot.bridge.controls.LocalControlKeyEventDispatcher

Dispatches key events directly to plot local controls, regardless of focus (but only if the mouse is hovering over the plot). This is an alternative to other keyboard input strategies in Swing (KeyListener, InputMap) which only apply when components have focus, whose usage may require a lot of extra code to make sure that the plot has focus whenever the user might expect it to. Usage note: It is advisable to attach this as an AncestorListener to a relevant JComponent instead of registering it as a KeyEventDispatcher directly. When acting as an AncestorListener, this will register and remove itself as a KeyEventDispatcher automatically when the component is added or removed from the Swing hierarchy. This helps ensure that stale references do not remain in the KeyboardFocusManager, which is global (so out-dated dispatchers which are not removed present memory leaks.) @author vwoeltje
