[Bug 122288] New: Keyboard accelerators unavailable in Calc Format
menu
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=122288
Bug ID: 122288
Issue Type: DEFECT
Summary: Keyboard accelerators unavailable in Calc Format menu
Classification: Application
Product: Calc
Version: AOO400-dev
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: CONFIRMED
Keywords: accessibility, regression
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: ui
Assignee: issues@openoffice.apache.org
Reporter: pescetti@apache.org
CC: issues@openoffice.apache.org

Accelerators comparison: 3.4.1 vs 400m1
We have an accelerators-related bug in 400m1.
In Calc, Alt+O opens F~ormat but, within "Format", there is no accelerator for
the Flip command (and anything below it, apparently) since F, L, I, P are all
taken by other commands. This might be one of the cases where we need manual
definition (for example, mapping "AutoFormat" to "m"; or improve the
algorithm).
For reference, I'm attaching a 3.4.1 vs 400m1 comparison. This is a regression
and has accessibility implications.

there are no manual mnemonics in trunk right now, they are all generated by the
vcl algorithm.

the algorithms stops assigning mnemonics once all available characters have
been used.

all commands that are used in more than one module (and have the same label),
belong to GenericCommands.xcu, then all will have the same mnemonics.
This happens already at the top level of the menubar, and was the status up to
3.4.1 for all the commands that were in the right place (unfortunately that was
not the case).

--- Comment #1 from Ariel Constenla-Haile <ar...@apache.org> ---
There are different problems:
a) Missing mnemonics:
New writer document. Select menu "File".
"Print" and "Printer settings" don't mnemonic.
The same happens in a Calc document
b) Different mnemonics for generic commands:
New writer document. Select menu "Format", submenu "Arrange" has the mnemonic
"Arra~nge".
New Calc document. Select menu "Format", submenu "Arrange" has the mnemonic
"Arrang~e"

--- Comment #2 from Andrea Pescetti <pe...@apache.org> ---
The problem is mainly a): it seems that the algorithm (or bad manual
assignments) make all allowed mnemonics unavailable for "Print" in Writer and
for "Flip" in Calc, so that mnemonics stop working at that item. And this is an
accessibility issue.
As for b) (inconsistent mnemonics across applications), it may be "nice to
have" but I don't see it as a requirement or an accessibility problem. Menus
are different across applications, so it's understandable that the same item
has different mnemonics in Writer and Calc.

Setting status to fixed (which was probably forgotten). All cases that are
described above have proper mnemonics.
