Keyboard navigation with a minimized ribbon bar shows the wrong tab selected.

Try the ribbon bar MDI sample.  Hit Alt and hit a key as shown under the ribbon tabs.  If the bar is minimized, then the appropriate page is shown, but the wrong tab is selected above it.

Thanks,

Thank you for reporting this issue. To fix it, please insert four lines of code at the beginning of the following method:

bool CExtRibbonBar::Ribbon_AutoHideModeDoExpanding(
            CExtRibbonButtonTabPage * pTBB,
            bool bKeyboardTrackingEvent
            )
{
            ASSERT_VALID( this );
            ASSERT_VALID( pTBB );
            ASSERT( GetSafeHwnd() != NULL );
            bKeyboardTrackingEvent;
            if( ! Ribbon_AutoHideModeEnabledGet() )
                        return false;
            if( RibbonPage_ExpandedModeGet() )
                        return false;
////// BEGIN: NEW LINES ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
INT nSelIdx = RibbonTabPageButton_GetIndexOf( pTBB );
            if( nSelIdx <= 0 )
                        return false;
            Ribbon_PageSelectionSet( nSelIdx, false );
////// END: NEW LINES ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
bool bKeyTipsDisplayed = KeyTipsDisplayedGet();
INT nIndex, nCount = AnimationSite_ClientGetCount();
            for( nIndex = 0; nIndex < nCount; nIndex ++ )
