Re: [orca-list] "Firefox" and "Thunderbird": install add-ons from the hard drive

[Peter Vágner <pvdeejay gmail com>]

Hello,

I'm trying the same thing with Thunderbird 38.6.0.
When going to Menu Tools -> Addons, there is a focusable clearly labeled 
button Tools for all addons on the toolbar. It is possible to switch to 
it by repeatedly pressing the tab key.
However no mather what I'm trying I can't get this button to activate. 
Emulating the mouse, pressing enter, pressing spacebar does nothing.
I think it should popup a menu.

So I suspect this might be a Mozilla issue..

Greetings

Peter
