One of the mnemonic keystrokes is ignored when sub-menu in a popup menu is visible

XMLWordPrintable

      I have attached a sample test. Execute the sample test and try the following:

      1. Press TAB and move the focus to one of the buttons.
      2. Press SHIFT+F10 and bring up the popup menu.
      3. Press 'ALT + F'. File menu contents will be opened.
      4. Press 'ALT + O'. Open menu will be opened.
      5. Press 'ALT + F' or 'ALT + G'.

      Expected Result:
      Pressing ALT + F should close the 'Open' menu and show only 'File' menu OR
      Pressing ALT + G should open the 'Go' Menu.

      Actual:
      But none of these things happen and the keystroke is simply ignored the first time. If I press ALT+F or ALT+G again, I could the above expected results.

      This is noticed on WinXP as well as SolSparc10 on Tiger-FCS as well as Mustang. The user has to press the mnemonic twice after opening a sub-menu.
