Mnemonics / accelerator underlines are not visible anymore in the top menu bar for the gen VCL plugin, when they used to always be visible. Context menus are not affected. kf5 plugin not affected. Version: 24.8.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 709866a3b8e073fab4937dcf91dcd33ff1d2bc13 CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 6.5; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: CL threaded Before f2dfb95258215f90562617823b950c3ed151c1bf, they were always visible. Since then, they disappeared and the tilde was visible in the inactive elements. The tilde issue was solved with 4d39b88283d02eb44fe4cb8f3e4ec153ebf96a13 for bug 159976 but the mnemonics are still not visible.
Created attachment 192976 [details] Useragent LibreofficeDev The same issue here on Windows 10 Pro.
(In reply to milupo from comment #1) > The same issue here on Windows 10 Pro. Doesn't it work as expected on Windows? I.e., by default, the mnemonics are shown when you press Alt?
Oh, maybe I misunderstoodl. Alt works in the main menu bar but accelerator keys are not shown for menuitems. Menuitems usually do not use the Alt key. They are shown in context menus only. I wish the old behavior back – accelerator keys should always be shown.
BTW, I am Michael Wolf (one f only).
(In reply to milupo from comment #3) > I wish the old behavior back – accelerator keys should always be shown. This is the operating system setting: look for "underline" in Settings applet - you will find it under Accessibility > Keyboard (Underline access keys). Please don't continue this off-topic Windows support question here, in a Linux-specific issue.
