Description Carolyn MacLeod CLA 2017-06-15 15:18:27 EDT
Select a file in the Navigator, using the keyboard.
Type Shift+F10 to bring up the context menu.
For some reason, the Navigator selection jumps to a nearby folder (I can't quite determine the pattern - seems to be the oldest sibling folder of a file, or the youngest child folder of a folder - very odd).

The selection should stay on the selected file or folder, and the context menu should open up for that file or folder.

Note: I did not try this on Mac - it may have the same behavior.

Reopening. Still a problem. Happens on Mac also. It seems that the context menu handling code may be sending a click to the navigator, which selects the centered element. Needs investigation.

This was fixed with recent keyboard handling updates to the navigator.
Closing.
