I am way behind on this, but pressing "enter," by default is "right
clicking," and sometimes "right click" is not what you want. "Enter,"
in that context for system tray is not double clicking left button
which it does by default in most other windows apps, because in most
cases "right click," by default by pressing enter brings up more
choices and apps generally give choices for, when they don't respond
to left clicking in the system tray. That is why GW-Micro gave us the
right click action in the system tray when you press enter, because
many apps gives a lot of choices when right click is press on their
system tray icon. Some, when left clicked once bring up a different
menu than when you press right click. There is, double left click and
double right click, also available.

Interesting!
Well, I am not using Esset, but what if you try one of the other
entries in the SysTray? Do you get to their submenu as well?
Anyone else on the list, who is able to reproduce my original
problem? Anyone in the staff see the strange behavior?

David,
I'll begin by admitting I never use the Window-Eyes Insert-s
command. My preference is Windows-b. Also I have never attempted to
access the Systray from the We control Panel. However, when I just
tried your steps to create the systray issue, I could not do so. I
opened the Window-Eyes Control panel and pressed Insert-s. I located
Eset, my antivirus program, and pressed Enter. I was placed into the
menu as expected. I am using the Window-Eyes 7.2 beta with Windows
XP Home SP3.

Subject: SysTray problem
This situation, has been the case for all the time I can remember,
in WE. I will here but give one example, but it happens in a long
range of cases. Wonder why, and if there is - or can be - a fix for it.
Many a software place themselve in the SysTray. Sometimes, the entry
is but a notification, but in many cases, it is more of a menu bar.
Like with your AntiVirus. Scrolling down the list, and pressing
ENTER on the AntiVirus, you will have a menu of choices opening,
specifically for the AntiVirus software. Well, that is what it is
supposed to do, and does in certain cases. But this is exactly where
my challenge sits.
If, for instance, you are in Windows Explorer, then press INS-S, and
scroll down to your AntiVirus and hit ENTER; everything work just
fine. On the other hand, try go to WE controlPanel, by CTRL-\. Then
press INS-S, and repeat the steps. When pressing ENTER on your
AntiVirus this time, you are thrown back to WE ControlPanel, and
nothing more happens - no menu opened this time. I do see the same
behavior, if I am in one of my firewall's windows, and try to access
any stuff in the SysTray. You can scroll the list, but soon as you
hit ENTER, expecting the submenu to open, you are simply thrown back
to your original window. If you are in other windows - i.e Notepad,
Outlook Express, Windows Explorer, your net browser etc - and try to
access any stuff in the SysTray, everything work perfectly well, and
you will be given the submenus.
Why is this happening. It simply doesn't make sense, that your
access to the submenus of the stuff in the SysTray, will be
depending on which window you are in, when opening the SysTray.
Really hope that GW can have a fix for this, before the 7.2 will be
released. At least, I find it rather bothersome, not to be able to
have the full access in SysTray, no matter what project I am
currently working on.
