Description

Observed when using Weavly with NVDA on Windows 10 with Firefox and Chrome: the theme selector menu items are not highlighted.

Steps to reproduce:

  • Run NVDA
  • Tab to move focus to the Theme selector
  • Press Enter to open the menu
  • Use cursor keys to move within the menu

Expected:

  • The current menu item to be highlighted (which one has focus)

Actual:

  • There is no focus or other active menu item visual indication

Update: I can get focus highlighting on the Theme selector if I switch NVDA into forms mode (NVDA-space). So I think that this issue is likely a side effect of the ARIA markup not quite being correct. See C2LC-369

    This will no longer be relevant once we move to the new design.
