Description
It seems that the NVDA menu sometimes does not correctly obtain focus.
Reproduceable: sometimes
Steps to Reproduce
- Press NVDA+N.
- Press down arrow.
Actual Results
NVDA says "NVDA menu", but pressing down arrow acts as if the menu never obtained focus.
Expected Results
Pressing down arrow should focus on the first item of the NVDA menu (Preferences).
Additional Information
- This seems to occasionally occur on some systems and not others. I have never been able to reproduce this on my system.
- If this is going to occur, it seems to occur the first time the NVDA menu is brought up after NVDA is started. Subsequently, this continues to occur until NVDA is restarted.
- A sighted person noted that when this occurs, a window appears, but the menu does not.
- This may have something to do with needing to move the mouse cursor somewhere else before bringing up the menu. The PopupMenu method used apparently pops up the menu at the current location of the mouse cursor, which may be problematic.
