Description Andrés G. Aragoneses (IRC: knocte) 2009-04-27 15:12:23 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
I'm not sure if the Focusable state should appear on normal Menu elements of applications (the first level of them: File, Edit, View, Help...) because you may think that they are Focusable if they have an accesskey and you press it (with Alt+accessKey).

However, I'm sure that, after opening a first-level menu, their children should be Focusable because you can use the normal keyboard arrow keys to reach them

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open gedit.
2. Open accerciser, and go to the "Select All" menuitem, open the Accessible interface to see its states.
3. Click on the Edit menu of gedit.


Actual results:
Nothing.

Expected results:
"Select All" element should now have the "Focusable" state.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.

I can reproduce this.

Confirming, according to comment#1.

We're moving to gitlab! As part of this move, we are moving bugs to NEEDINFO if they haven't seen activity in more than a year. If this issue is still important to you and still relevant with GTK+ 3.22 or master, please reopen it and we will migrate it to gitlab.
