Mnemonic

java.lang.Object
- javafx.scene.input.Mnemonic

```
public class Mnemonic
extends Object
```
This class is used when creating a Mnemonic. The Mnemonic is constructed with a Node and a KeyCombination. When a Mnemonic is registered on a Scene, and the KeyCombination reaches the Scene unconsumed, then the target Node will be sent an ActionEvent.
Controls should use their MnemonicParsing property when adding Mnemonics.

Mnemonics will not be displayed on all platforms, but the api will still be present.

Since:

JavaFX 2.0
