Hit p, get ‘Assistant Publi…’; OK. Hit p again, get ‘Protéger’; > OK. Hit p again to get ‘Personnaliser’, menu closes instead. As Stuart explained in comment 11 it doesn't just "close", but it executes the "Protéger les champs" command in the submenu. But I can reproduce. Version: 7.5.5.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: ca8fe7424262805f223b9a2334bc7181abbcbf5e CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: x11 Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: fr-FR Calc: threaded I think it is inevitable that some accelerators will be shared in some menus, and that's why we are able to cycle through choices by pressing the key repeatedly. But in this case, to reach the "Personnaliser" item (which is an important function), one has to: - press P twice - exit the submenu with left arrow or Escape - press P again It is realistic to make sure that any accelerator for a submenu is unique, so we don't have to navigate out of the submenu to then reach the top menu item we are after. Looking at master, it's a tricky one because every single character in "Protéger le document" is already taken! I suggested two changes to the translated French strings to fix it, and checked that it would work for both Writer and Calc in current master: 1. Use "Y" for "Dictionnaire des synonymes"... (which is a safe bet given how rare is Y in French) 2. ... so we can use "D" for "Protéger le document" Sophie, could you accept the 4 string suggestions, if you think they're OK? I don't have the privilege to directly submit them. 1. https://translations.documentfoundation.org/translate/libo_ui-master/officecfgregistrydataorgopenofficeofficeui/fr/?q=%22Dictionnaire+des+synonymes%22&sort_by=-priority%2Cposition&offset=1 2. https://translations.documentfoundation.org/translate/libo_ui-master/officecfgregistrydataorgopenofficeofficeui/fr/?q=%22Prot%C3%A9ger+le+document%22&sort_by=-priority%2Cposition&offset=1 (Side note: gtk3 VCL is not affected because the expansion of the submenu does not focus it automatically.) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
