Description Francesco De Domenico 2018-05-08 12:55:09 UTC
Created attachment 371803 [details]
The attachment is an archive containing 2 pictures showing the wrong behavior.

Using the Scale Tool will make a contextual, tool related, popup to appear and it won't accept the "Alt+S" hotkey for pressing the "Scale" button, this is also happens with the "Alt+R" hotkey for the "Reset" button.

I have experienced this behavior since GIMP 2.10RC1 and I can confirm the same issue happening on my Windows 10 x64 installations and a Fedora 28 installation running the 2.10 flatpak image provided by gimp.org.
I can also confirm this didn't happen in the 2.8.x branch.

How to reproduce the bug:
1) Create a new image of any size of your choice
2) Create a text layer or paste any layer of your choice
3) Select the Scale Tool and click on the newly created layer
4) Contextual tool popup will appear, enter any desired new size values, press enter, the layer will be previewed with the new sizes.
5) Try to perform the scale operation by using the hotkey "Alt+S", the "S" of the scale button will be underlined as well as the "Select" menu from the toolbar
6) The "Select" menu will open instead of the "Scale" button to be pressed.

If in point 5) we decide to press "Alt+R" to reset the image to the original size, the "Filters" menu from toolbar will open instead.

In the attachment zip there are two images:
* 1.jpg shows the behavior of the software while just holding down "Alt"
* 2.jpg shows the behavior of the software while pressing the whole "Alt+S"
