Description aslmx 2015-07-30 20:08:48 UTC
I noticed that when rightclicking an image in writer, when you want to reach the "Anchor" menu in the context menu, you are supposed to type "c", as c is underlined in An<c>hor as the mnemonic access code.

However, when i press c the selection toggles between Copy and Caption. Anchor is never reached.

Similar applies to when selecting a piece of text in a table cell -> rightclick, try to reach CELL, selection reaches  copy and then change case, (then you have to press left arrow key to get out of change case menu) press C again and you are on copy.

Steps To Reproduce:

1. Select image
2. right click
-> Context Menu opens
3. Press c
-> Copy is selected
4. Press c
-> Caption is selected
5. press c
-> Copy is selected although Anchor would be next.

Problem:

Last menu item with a mnemonic that is used more than once is not reachable

the "c" accelerator is used in 3 items (see screenshot):
- Copy
- Anchor
- Insert Caption

I confirm that clicking "c" just cycles among the first 2 items and ignores the last one.

Retested in 5.2.1.2 portable edition on Windows.

The Accelerators seem to have changed some time between today and the day i opened this bug.

Now every option in the Picutre context mneu that i mentioned in the initial bug description has a different Accelerator.

Actually not a bug fix, but an easy workaround...
