Re: Keyboard access to me menu in Unity? -- lacks front-to-back cycling
Even if it isn't a coding error per say, it's still a design bug. I have no idea what package to file it against though... unity? indicator-appmenu? appmenu-gtk? Can someone with a bit more knowledge of which package handles what point us in the right direction?

Re: Keyboard access to me menu in Unity? -- lacks front-to-back cycling
Hey guys! Talking about this menu thing.. i don't like that the close buttons when maximized still appear on the left side! I tried to change it with the gconf tool! (metacity, etc) but didn't work! Do you know if it can be done?! Oscar 2011/4/16 Evan Huus > Did a little more testing: even stranger.

Re: Keyboard access to me menu in Unity? -- lacks front-to-back cycling
Did a little more testing: even stranger. If I have a truly menuless app open (like Update Manager), then F10 does focus the first indicator as you mentioned, Jason. In that case I have right-to-left wrapping, but not left-to-right wrapping.

Another difference with my machine: If I have no apps open, the global menu for nautilus shows up (since presumably the desktop is nautilus, and it has focus). Again, odd. One of our machines seems to be behaving oddly. I'm guessing it's mine (it's an upgrade from maverick from lucid), but either way it would be nice to know the intended behavior here.

RE: Keyboard access to me menu in Unity? -- lacks front-to-back cycling
The other issue I'm facing when accessing Session-Menu is that the arrow keys don't cycle front-to-back/back-to-front when scrolling the panel indicators in Beta 2. For example, if I have no apps open (and then no global menus present) and I press F10 the highlight appears on the first indicator menu. If I press the left arrow key (with the intention of cycling to the Session-Menu) nothing happens. If I press the right-arrow key then I can cycle through the menus, but I have to go through each indicator menu which involves much tapping. I would be so much faster to be able to tap the right-arrow key and land directly on the session-menu. > From: eapa...@gmail.com > Date: Fri, 15 Apr 2011 13:03:23 -0400 > Subject: Keyboard access to me menu in Unity? > To: ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com > > In past versions of Ubuntu, Super-S would select the me menu so that > you could access it without a mouse.
