MenuBar that has child menu items don't propertly show items on mouse hover

[DavidHoffer]

I have a top level menu bar that has some menus that have MenuItems. When the user hovers the mouse over the menu of the first menuitem it does not show its children until the user moves the mouse to the second (or below) menu item and then back up to the first...then it will work. All menu items other than the first work as expected.

I just upgraded to 3.0.4 and this version still has this behavior. Is this a known issue? What is a workaround?

Thanks,

I cannot find a reference if this is already known or not. However the MenuBar works different than in GXT2:

I will move this thread to the proper location for further investigation. Thanks for reporting.

Okay thanks. In the example you don't happen to put any child menu items in the first menu item so this example wouldn't show this problem.

Than i maybe not fully understand you. The file menu has an item "Open File" that contains children items. Can you please explain what you mean exactly?

Still, they work differently

Sure. In the examples only File and Foo have items with children. However neither are the first child and that's where the bug is.

If, in the File case, you move Open File above New...then that should show the problem.

Thanks for the update. That makes it clearer.
