It is seen that using VK_F4 in JButton's setMnemonic(int i), causes the letter 'S' in the JButton to be underlined if JButton's text has 'S' in its string.
This is because [**VK_F4**](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/master/src/java.desktop/share/classes/java/awt/event/KeyEvent.java#L506) keycode is 0x73 (115 in decimal) which happens to be value of lowercase [**'s'** ](https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~pattis/15-1XX/common/handouts/ascii.html) so as per the logic implemented in SwingUtilities.findDisplayedMnemonicIndex(), the first index of the character (either lowecasr or uppercase) is returned as a mnemonic, which gets underlined.
Fix is made to ignore Action Keys from VK_F1->VK_F11 as displayed mnemonic which corresponds to lowercase p->z
