  I have a menu with vertical orientation, when I use mouse to navigate in the menu I have no problem. But if I open a menu that has a submenu (Accounting in this example) with a short cut key (Alt+A) I have difficulties when using Down Arrow key to navigate to the next menu item inside the submenu popup.
  This is not an accepted behaviour. I have noticed that if I leave my mouse pointer in the place that the submenu popup opens and open the menu with a shortcut key there won't be any problem using Down Arrow key to move down inside the popup.

  <Grid>

      <telerik:RadMenu HorizontalAlignment="Left" x:Name="ModulesMenu" Orientation="Vertical" Margin="12,12,0,50" IconColumnWidth="0" Width="95">

        <telerik:RadMenuItem Header="_Overdue" />

        <telerik:RadMenuItem Header="Search _Public" />

        <telerik:RadMenuItem x:Name="mnuICBC" Header="_ICBC Batching">

          <telerik:RadMenuItem Header="Autolink Web Page" />

          <telerik:RadMenuItem Header="WEIS/Autolink Sync" />

        </telerik:RadMenuItem>

        <telerik:RadMenuItem x:Name="mnuAccounting" Header="_Accounting"  >

          <telerik:RadMenuItem x:Name="mnuVend" Header="Accounts Payable" />

          <telerik:RadMenuItem x:Name="mnuCust" Header="Accounts Receivable" />

          <telerik:RadMenuItem x:Name="mnuCact" Header="Chart of Accounts" />

          <telerik:RadMenuItem x:Name="mnuComp" Header="General Ledger" />

          <telerik:RadMenuItem x:Name="mnuFtxn" Header="Business Transactions to G/L" />

        </telerik:RadMenuItem>

        <telerik:RadMenuItem x:Name="mnuAdmin" Header="Ad_min" >

          <telerik:RadMenuItem Header="System" />

          <telerik:RadMenuItem Header="Suppliers & Products" />

        </telerik:RadMenuItem>

      </telerik:RadMenu>

    </Grid>

  Hi Ramin,
  
  You are correct. This is definitely not the expected behavior.
  The issue is fixed and will be available for the upcoming service pack (and next internal build).
  
  Thank you for reporting it.
  I've updated your telerik points.
  
  All the best,
  Hristo
  the Telerik team
