Description Max 2020-06-23 01:37:49 UTC
Description:
There is Print Dialog in LO  6.4.4.2 with option of "Number of Copies" is hided in subsection "more".
When I press trigger "Alt + m" cursor stands on "more" but subsection doesn't uncover itself
Pressing "Enter" gets printing of one page. Bun subsection stays closed.
P.S.
I know about "Bug 127782 - New Print dialog is too high?"
I think that subsection with "Numbers of Copies" is an example of unusability.
"Number of Copies" is used more offen then separated printing of odd or even pages.
Look on MS Word - "Number of Copies" near print button!
Whit new style of the dialog user should take mouse to activate subsection for printing 2 or more copies

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open Print Dialog
2. Press "Alt + m"
3. Cursor stands on "more" but subsection stays closed
4. Pressing "Enter" gets printing of page. Subsection stays closed

Actual Results:
Pressing "alt + m" or "Enter" leave subsection closde

Expected Results:
Pressing "alt + m" or "Enter" should open subsection


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes



Additional Info:
I think need properties option for saving state of subsection (open or close) when user open Print dialog.

The way "Alt+[key]" keyboard shortcuts works, you need to use Space key to open the hidden options after Alt+M put the focus on "more", instead of Enter key.  I think it has been this way for quite some time, whether it's a bug or not is up to debate.

Adding UX team to CC and see what they say.

Thank you very much for advise. 
May be my post is the result of my misunderstood of apps behaviour.

conditioned reflex for activate something with hitting "Enter"
Comment 4 Max 2020-06-24 04:26:20 UTC
In addition to question "is it a bug or not"
If used Russian localisation the subsection open automaticaly with Alt+m
Comment 5 Heiko Tietze 2020-06-24 07:36:39 UTC
Space is key (alt+M in some localizations might be a control at the collapsed section that opens automatically if you focus something). Let's resolve the ticket as NAB. 

Admittedly, number of copies is used more often though still has secondary priority. And if we place the number of copies above other controls, the sequence makes no sense when fully expanded.

For the record, the reporter filed this issue ("Number of Copies" option should be more accessible) separately as bug 134276.
