Description thedeadlysarcasm 2024-04-08 10:26:41 UTC 
Description:
Since updating to the latest release version, using the ALT key on a physical keyboard doesn't open the application's menus (File, Modify, etc.). The menus are still accessible by clicking on them.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a LibreOffice component;
2. Press the ALT key on the keyboard.

Actual Results:
The menus aren't accessed, and the focus stays where it was before (e.g.: in the text in Writer).

Expected Results:
Focus shifts to the menus, which are then accessible by using the arrow keys or hotkeys.


Reproducible: Always

Corrected at the 24.2.3 release, meanwhile <F10> will take you to the main menu 'File' entry.
