Description
Qt follows the windows system preference to show or not show access keys (the underlined letter in menu items) correctly for basic menu's. However, it seems that 1 small detail of standard windows behaviour is not followed: taking notepad and visual studio as an example, if I bring up a context menu using the mouse, no underlined access keys are visible. However, if I bring up the context menu using the context menu key on my keyboard (or the shift+f10 key combo), access keys are underlined in notepad and visual studio, but not in Qt applications.
On top of that, I cannot find any way to work around this (I would like to be able to tell my context menu to show the access keys). All I found so are solution to create a style proxy ( https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qproxystyle.html#details ) which does this globally.
