Bug Description
In Windows at least, neither Pcbnew nor Eeschema responds to the usual Windows convention of accessing the menu bar. The convention to which I refer is holding down the ALT key while pressing the letter corresponding with the desired menu. For example, ALT-f for the File menu.
Instead, currently the only way to use the keyboard to access the menu is to press, then release the ALT key, then press the desired key.
To confuse issues, the 3D viewer works as expected/
I must say - you people have done a WONDERFUL thing with this program - it is really terrific!!! I've only been using it a month, but each day I find some new thoughtful feature. As a long time programmer, a great big tip of my hat to you all!!!
