            Bug ID: 143513
           Summary: Menus opened in cascade not to close as soon as an
                    option is selected
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.4.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: ricky.tigg at gmail.com

Description:
Menus opened in cascade close as soon as an option is selected.

Steps to Reproduce:
In Writer | Select Edit → Track changes → unselect Record. 

Actual Results:
All menus opened in cascade close instantaneously. Such behavior illustrates a
power of decision belonging to the application instead of the user. 

Expected Results:
Not to close the menu which still has the pointer upon of it. | Under a
currently displayed menu, a user may have several options to select/unselect in
a row, e.g by going on with option Accept all. As a consequence of the current
behaviour, the user has to reopen in a row those same menus as many times as
there are options to be selected/unselected. A natural user/interface relation
would exist only once that decision belongs to the natural application user,
which is indeed the user not the application itself. The implementation in this
regards would be to close the displayed menu as soon as the pointer is out of
the menu’s frame, then without even the need for clicking somewhere out of the
involved frame.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes
