Last Known Working Electron version

No response

Expected Behavior

Working menus

Actual Behavior

See attached GIF: when you try to select sub-menu element the menu selection focus jumps to the first element of menu which caused to hide sub-menu.

For clarify: this happens when I connect to my Ubuntu 18.04/20.04 remotely via RDP (with xrdp). Maybe this bug also reproducible with physical access -- I cannot check that now.

On Windows I've never faced with such problem.

Can be reproduced in VSCode and GitKraken. See the original report in microsoft/vscode#111716

Thanks for reporting this and helping to make Electron better!

Because of time constraints, triaging code with third-party dependencies is usually not feasible for a small team like Electron's. Would it be possible for you to make a standalone testcase with only the code necessary to reproduce the issue? Electron Fiddle is a great tool for making small testcases and publishing them as gists that Electron maintainers can use.

If the bug you've found can be tested with a pass/fail test, please make the testcase exit 0 on success or nonzero on failure. The lets Electron's issue bot see what releases are affected by the bug by checking your test against different OSes and Electron versions.

I'm adding the blocked/need-repro label for this reason. After you make a test case, please link to it in a followup comment.

Thanks in advance! Your help is appreciated.

Unfortunately, Electron Fiddle hungs on loading concrete electron version when I try to run project. Just nothing happens, no logs, nothing. Is it able to work behind a proxy? I have no much time to debug it problems.

I've got a physical access to my machine and this bug is not reproduced them. But I have different desktop environments for RDP connection and direct access:

• RDP -- GNOME 3, bug is present
• direct -- Unity, bug is not present

I think, at least you can try to reproduce this is VSCode as shown on the GIF.
