NotifyDescriptor's initialValue and mnemonics

[shansi]

I have a dialog with Yes/No Option type and I use a NotifyDescriptor.

But the problem is that I should always have the No Option selected by default.

NotifyDescriptor nd = new NotifyDescriptor(msg, title, NotifyDescriptor.YES_NO_OPTION, NotifyDescriptor.QUESTION_MESSAGE,null,NotifyDescriptor.NO_OPTION);
DialogDisplayer.getDefault().notify(nd);

But this doesnt work.Always the Yes option is selected.

Is there anyother way I could acheive the same?Also is it possible to set the mnemonics for the Yes and No buttons?

Thanks.

You would need to make your own JButton's in such a case. Anyway you
would not want a mnemonic for the No button if it were the default
button for the dialog (the default button of a dialog should
conventionally have no mnemonic since just Enter works). In the normal
yes/no dialog, No (i.e. the non-default button) doesn't have a mnemonic
either because Escape (or closing the dialog window) has the same function.

The A11Y NetBeans plugin reports that a dialog created via NotifyDescriptor..Confirmation(..)  is missing a mnemonic for the No button.  Does this mean the A11Y tool is mistaken or
NotifyDescriptor.Confirmation(..) API should provide mnemonics?
