Yes, the FUSA behaves in a similar fashion. The odd part is after pressing escape and leaving the menu, you could tab out of the applet but the only members in the focus cycle is the applet before and after the fusa/indicator.
Tabbing through applets in the GNOME panel is inherently broken, even the main menu applet does not do a great job. It is hard to fix because each applet is it's own app that needs to respect the tab order. So after you add more than two applets to the panel you get weirdness, that is why bug #334544 is important. -- indicator applet traps keyboard focus https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/334533 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Indicator Applet Developers, which is the registrant for Indicator Applet. Status in Indicator Applet: New Bug description: I believe that only metacity provides keyboard access to the gnome-panel, so this bug is not relevant for compiz, unfortunately. Steps to reproduce: 1. Press ctrl+alt+tab and select the top panel. 2. Tab through the applets until you reach the indicator applet. 3. Press left/right to bring up the dropdown menu (this is unintuitive, I am going to file a separate bug for that). 4. Select a conversation or application ("Pidgin Internet Messenger"). 5. Press enter. 6. The buddy list is show/hidden. 7. There is no way to get keyboard focus out of the panel without using the mouse (ok, there probably is, I just can't find it!). _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dx-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dx-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
