[Bug 689179] Re: Pressing Alt key does not underline mnemonics

 

when you activate a menu (either by clicking it or using the mnemonic)
the menu pops up but the mnemonics aren't underlined until a menu item
is highlighted (eg, by moving the mouse over the window or using the
arrow keys to navigate thru the menu). the mnemonics should underline as
soon as the menu pops up

ubuntu 14.04 with unity

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: indicator-appmenu

  When I hold the Alt key, mnemonic characters should be underlined. For
  example, the F in the File menu title should be underlined because
  pressing F will open said menu. This is not happening with indicator-
  appmenu.

  (In addition, only Alt+F seems to open anything. Is that another bug,
  or have I just forgotten the conventional shortcuts for the other
  menus?)
