Description Mads 2024-04-27 12:51:48 UTC

SUMMARY
With Bluetooth system settings, theres no way to add devices using only a keyboard. So if you have a bluetooth mouse, you must acquire a wired mouse to do the adding. You can see that e.g. "Alt+a" _should_ trigger the "Add new device" button, but when actually pressing "Alt+a" nothing happens.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Try to press "Add new device" with keyboard, either with tabbing to highlight the button, or by pressing "Alt+a"


OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens, no dialog appears, there's no way to click on "Add new device" without using a mouse.

EXPECTED RESULT
The "Add New Device" dialog should appear.

Qt 6.7.0 this, sorry forgot to mention it.

Can't reproduce; this is working for me with both the Alt mnemonic as well as traditional tab-based keyboard navigation. I can get through the whole process using the keyboard.
