GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 340411
Move between panels and the desktop keyboard shortcut gets stuck
Last modified: 2006-05-15 20:07:32 UTC
Please describe the problem: This is an accessibility problem. I want to use a keyboard shortcut to select from all panel items, and get back to the desktop, without using the mouse. This fails if a custom menu bar is present. Steps to reproduce: 1. Create custom menu bar in some panel. 2. Switch to panel using keyboard shortcut 3. Attempt to cycle through all elements of panel using arrow keys. Actual results: Cursor gets stuck in menu bar, and the shortcut no longer works---I must use the mouse to reset things. Expected results: I should be able to get out of the custom menu bar using just the arrow keys. Does this happen every time? Yes, since about 2.10 IIRC, but I might be wrong, it could have always been this way. Other information:
