Description Kamil Páral 2016-12-12 14:47:15 UTC 
It used to be possible to open up a file/folder context menu (showing Open With, Properties, etc items) using the Menu key or Shift+F10 shortcut. Now it is not possible anymore, nothing happens. The only way to open up the content menu is using the mouse. With just a keyboard, I can't access the actions in the context menu at all.

Please add back the possibility to open up the context menu using the keyboard.

This happens on both Wayland and Xorg.

3.22.2 was released fairly recently with the fix.
