Hi,
I find keyboard navigation of the main application menu a bit
confusing. After opening it with Alt+F1 and typing `p' it is not the
Programming sub menu that opens, as I would have guessed. Instead it is
the Places top menu (on my system the one to the right of the
Applications menu). When the Places menu is opened focus is given to the
top menu item there and I can type other keys to activate sub menus. The
same goes for the System top menu.
I found this illogical. Shouldn't the focus be at the top item of the
Applications menu when I activate it? If not, why, and how am I
supposed to activate menu items under it without using the cursor keys?
I also tried using `a' to activate the Applications menu but that did not work,
nothing happens. This is not consistent with `p' and `s' working
for the Places and System menus.
I am running Ubuntu 7.10.
Thanks!
/Mathias
