Description: menu buttons don't show up as menu buttons in the Orca screen reader Steps to Reproduce: From swriter, going into Files->Templates->Manage templates to get the Templates dialog box, the "Settings" button on the bottom left corner is a menu button (as seen by the little triangle). Actual Results: The Orca screen reader however does not know this because the menu that the button would open is not exposed through AT-SPI as a child of the button before clicking the button. Expected Results: The menu opened by the button should already be exposed in AT-SPI as a child of the button, before clicking the button. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: It seems that in that example, the menu is built in templatedlg.cxx's SfxTemplateManagerDlg::SfxTemplateManagerDlg(), perhaps it is a matter of converting that to .ui?

Hello all, Confirmed on Debian 8.10 Jessie with LibreOfficeDev 6.1 GTK2 and Orca 3.24. FYI, on Windows the issue doesn't appear. Best regards.
I guess there is no problem on windows because MSAA has ROLE_SYSTEM_BUTTONDROPDOWN, while AT-SPI2 doesn't have that role. Perhaps we should just introduce that role, so that libreoffice can just expose it, instead of orca having to find out that it's a drop-down button?

Yes, I confirm the issue is still there with libreoffice 6.1.5.2, my question still holds: “I guess there is no problem on windows because MSAA has ROLE_SYSTEM_BUTTONDROPDOWN, while AT-SPI2 doesn't have that role. Perhaps we should just introduce that role, so that libreoffice can just expose it, instead of orca having to find out that it's a drop-down button?”

It seems that at least with Libreoffice 7.0.4.2 this is fixed for the provided example: “ From swriter, going into Files->Templates->Manage templates to get the Templates dialog box, the "Settings" button on the bottom left corner is a menu button (as seen by the little triangle). ” On my system, Orca now behaves fine for this example, Jean-Philippe, do you still notice the issue somewhere else in libreoffice 7?
There is no settings in this dialog box any more in LO 7.3.x Is this still an issue? I tested, seems to be a moot point now.
Closing as WORKSFORME based on comment 6 and comment 7. Please create a new ticket if there are still issues.
