Keytips and the Escape Key

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I'm getting complaints about differences in behavior between my ribbon and the Office products' ribbons.  Specifically, the interaction of keytips and the escape key.  Open, say, an email message in Outlook.  Use the Alt key to invoke the "move to folder" drop menu (Alt H M).  Now hit the Escape key.  The drop menu goes away, and the keytips for all the controls on that tab return.
Now, do something similar with the Codejock ribbon sample.  Try the "Find" command (Alt H FI) and hit Escape.  Keytips reappear, but they are for the tabs, not the controls on the active tab.  The Escape action went back too far.

Is this a known bug?  Any chance a fix is available?

Thanks,
