Tried with git master as of today, I still can't reach the sidebar. What's the secret key combo? The search field is focused by default; hit the tab get to move focus to the sidebar. That works for me. (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #7) > The search field is focused by default; hit the tab get to move focus to the > sidebar. That works for me. Yes, that works as well. However, once the focus left the sidebar/search field, it never comes back. Found out what's happening When we tab to the main view and back, focus goes to the SubcategoriesView. i.e the view of "window behaviour", "task switch" etc. when clicking on window management. This is a page that should be hidden and disabled. In fact it is offscreen with a width of 0 Any news on this? I just tried it again with the Plasma 5.21 Beta and keyboard navigation with the sidebar is absolutely impossible. When opening a submenu, it's impossible to focus the "Back" button so you're stuck there forever. To me there is no problem wrt focus going between category and subcategory. the very noticeable problem is the focus going in and out of the kcm, but only those like the global theme with the big icon view, other kcms (like fonts one for qml and qwidfet ones) seem to be fine Git commit 7791a403d1efc949dbe14785dee91cffaf0ca022 by Arjen Hiemstra.

Transferring focus from the sidebar to the KCM does work now, but it's a bit clunky. *** Bug 443523 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** > Last remaining issue is...
I still have a few issues (some were already mentioned on here):
For me, when I'm in a KCM in a nested category, the focus goes back to the root category. If the app is big enough to show the top-level and nested categories then this isn't an issue. If the app is only showing the nested categories then:
1. The focus only goes to the top-level categories and never goes to the visible nested categories
2. The focus never goes to the back buttton.
this means I can't actually see the sidebar items that are focused.
Also the Quick Settings module doesn't let me change focus the the sidebar, which is quite problematic since this is the default KCM.
And finally, it seems impossible to activate the application menu from keyboard.
On Plasma 5.27.0

Don't change the previous focus by calling focus{First,Last}Child
This makes sure focus chain behave as expected when pressing Tab from
menu items in the sidebar, and pressing Backtab from the module view.
