It seems to me this is a bug in the native WPF control however MS has verified the hot keys on sub-menu items works using a stack panel.  The keyboard focus remains in controls contained within the tool windows, specifically a text box control.  The menu item does not get the keyboard focus.  Possibly the docking control is causing this issue?

Hello,

I'm sorry you're having trouble.  We're not aware of any menu item issues.  Can you tell us exactly how to reproduce this in one of our samples?  And just to verify, you are on .NET 5?

I am on .Net 4.8.  Sorry about the misunderstanding. I wasn't able to change after I noticed I submitted it incorrectly.  I modified your project and it works.  I would like to do a remote session so I can show you in my project.

Hi Michael,

No problem, I adjusted it to say .NET 4.8.  Unfortunately remote sessions aren't generally helpful in solving problems.  What would be best is if you can reproduce this in a new simple sample project and email that to our support address, mentioning this thread.  Then we can debug with that and see what's going on.  Please keep it as minimal as possible and remove the bin/obj folders from the .zip you send so it doesn't get spam blocked.  Thanks!

OK I finally figured this out.  I had a Focusable style applied.  Cockpit error.  Please delete this question.

The latest build of this product (v24.1.2) was released 1 days ago, which was after the last post in this thread.
