Context Menu Key

IrrationalKilla

For the version of Discord I have running on Windows 10.

Within the text field where I can enter a message to send:
  The "Context Menu" button on my keyboard does bring up the correct menu.
  The problem is: The menu that pops up does not get keyboard-focus.

The arrow keys move the cursor around in the chat box when really they should be navigating the popup menu.

I use the "Context Menu" button often to fix spelling mistakes, but currently I have to use my mouse to navigate that menu.

    I also experience this issue. 

    I suspect that due to the lower usage of the menu button that this won't see traction. I do however believe that if users were educated on the use of the context menu key.

    To build on your idea when context key is pressed while the cursor is "touching" the misspelled word it would be great that once the menu has the keyboard focus, it defaults to the top spelling suggestion then moves on to the end of the word and adds a space. 

    Microsoft word does this well:

    cursor on misspelt word > context menu key open >top suggestion is selected by default > enter > continue.

    Also came to report this problem. Now I'm here to bump this thread! Too few people know of the power of the context menu key!
