Description Ray Wang 2009-05-06 08:20:07 UTC
PROBLEM STATEMENT:
From I have learned, 'visible' state indicates this object is visible, e.g. has been explicitly marked for exposure to the user. 

when you click on a menu, the menu pops up, it is visible, and it's showing, but the problem is when the menu is not showing, it has to have 'visible' state since it is a VISIBLE widget when you click on the menu. 

I know the menu of gtkcombobox.py also doesn't have 'visible' state when it is not showing. I'm not sure if it's a bug against gail. Could someone confirm this, then I'll file a bug for it.

REPRODUCE:
1. Run uia2atk/test/samples/gtkcombobox.py
2. Run Accerciser, open the "Interface Viewer" tab, and expand the "Accessible"
expander
3. In Accerciser's left pane, browse to menu widget of the ipy (gtkcombobox.py) application
4. observe the states from the "Accessible" expander


RESULTS:
'visible' state is missing.

EXPECTED RESULTS:
'visible' state should be exist even if it is not showing.
