           Summary: spacebar selects item in menu
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: zakrzewski.jakub at gmail.com


Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

In Dolphin and in other KDE applications (Konqueror, Kcalc) when I use the
program menu with keyboard (in Dolphin e.g. Alt + V -> View) than I have some
options I can choose. Upon them are some options which I enable/disable. In
Dolphin in View there are "Preview" and "Show hidden Files" options. The only
way to select them is to press Enter. After this the options is
selected/deselected depending on the previous state, but the menu disappears.
So in my case to select both "Preview" and "Show hidden Files" options I have
to go through "Alt+V" arrow keys down until the option twice.

My idea is to use space-bar to select options as those mentioned before.
It is the significant improvement as I don't have to open the menu twice.
Instead of this I select the option with space-bar and go to the next option.
