I think the single number would be cleaner in that case, as well as an indication that "Show All Items" is active. > >I think having the TOP_LEFT command exit a submenu could be nice, > >regardless of the highlighted item. > > The problem here is that some displays just have TOP_LEFT/BOT_LEFT or just > have > TOP/BOT, and, of those, especially the older drivers, some don't have > menu-specific bindings.

On the other hand, I would expect leaving the submenu to be a more useful action than simply going to the top item, even on those old displays with limited bindings. Re-intering the submenu puts you on the top item again. > We could, though, introduce a menu-specific command for > leaving a submenu and then create a menu-specific binding to it for those > displays where it makes sense. Sure. I don't think this is in conflict with the suggestion above though. > >There is a strange speech stutter when scrolling down in the "Menu > >Options" menu.
