[Bug 1221827] Re: HUD Shortcut to Thunderbird Menu Item Disables Text Alignment Menu

 

No. I can no longer reproduce the failure in Thunderbird. The Firefox
failure cannot be reproduced because the Mozilla team substituted a web
page for a dialog box when Edit -> Preferences is selected.
Nevertheless, use of the HUD to access Thunderbird and Firefox menus
appears to work now (TB 38.2.0, FF 40.0.3).

Title:
  HUD Shortcut to Thunderbird Menu Item Disables Text Alignment Menu

Status in Unity:
  Incomplete
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  If the Unity HUD is used while composing a new Thunderbird HTML email
  message to insert a horizontal line, a subsequent attempt to use the
  text alignment menu fails. Clicking the toolbar button has no effect
  thereafter.

  To reproduce this failure:

  1. Start Thunderbird.

  2. Click "Create a new message" toolbar button to open the HTML
  message composition window.

  3. Enter some text in the message body.

  4. Select the text.

  5. Click the text alignment menu button and choose "Center."

  6. Tap the left <Alt> key to bring up the HUD.

  7. Enter the three letters "h", "o", "r".

  8. "Insert > Horizontal Line" becomes the selected default choice.

  9. Press <Enter>.

  10. Re-select the text entered in step 3 above.

  11. Click the text alignment menu button. The menu will no longer
  display.
