            Bug ID: 140730
           Summary: UI, keyboard: Form field properties dialog does not
                    get keyboard focus when it opens
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: tim at dvlop.nl

In Writer on Windows 10, when the properties dialog of a form control is opened
it does not automatically get keyboard focus and it seems the only way to give
it keyboard focus is to use the mouse. 
Steps to reproduce:
1.      Open a writer document containing a form field, select the form field
and press alt + enter
2.      The form properties dialog opens
Expected behavior: keyboard focus moves to the name field
Actual behavior: keyboard focus does not move there and I have not found a way
to give the keyboard properties dialog focus without using the mouse. However I
can dismiss the dialog by pressing escape. 

Note: I am using the NVDA screen reader, bug also appears to be reproducible if
NVDA is not running.
