This PR is aimed at (1) reducing the private API surface of _MenuAnchorState to make migration into RawMenuAnchor simpler, and (2) fixing focus-related bugs. Directional focus handling was moved from MenuAnchor (_MenuDirectionalFocusAction, _MenuNextFocusAction, and _MenuPreviousFocusAction) into SubmenuButton (_SubmenuDirectionalFocusAction). MenuAnchor now behaves similarly to a flat FocusScope, which makes it easier to customize. A future PR will ideally expose or remove the remaining internals (_lastItemFocusNode, _firstItemFocusNode, _isRoot, etc). All previous framework tests are passing, and additional tests were added for fixes (MenuAnchor tab traversal, reopened menus not being focusable), and to test MenuAnchor focus behavior separately from MenuBar. However, [one example test](https://github.com/flutter/flutter/pull/150950/files#diff-a33fa01b59d280784e7c8ed6b704bd005cde95b7d3b649dc82fd58530061a09d) had to be changed. I'm not sure why the previous example test was working to begin with, as submenu buttons are supposed to open on focus, but this behavior was not observed in the original test. Fixes https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/144381, https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/150334. One added feature is the ability to move between top-level horizontal submenus if a horizontal movement is made on a vertical menu item that has no children in the movement direction. This behavior was observed on Google Docs, MacOS, and various other menu systems I encountered. https://github.com/flutter/flutter/assets/59215665/04a42b8a-cc9e-4a50-9d0c-6f2d784cfc78
Flutter Examples

use flutter run
inside that example's directory. See the getting started
guide to install the flutter
tool.
For additional samples, see the
flutter/samples
repo.
Available examples include:
-
Hello, world The hello world app is a minimal Flutter app that shows the text "Hello, world!"
-
Flutter gallery The flutter gallery app no longer lives in this repo. Please see the gallery repo.
-
Layers The layers vignettes show how to use the various layers in the Flutter framework. For details, see the layers README.
-
Platform Channel The platform channel app demonstrates how to connect a Flutter app to platform-specific APIs. For documentation, see https://flutter.dev/to/platform-channels/.
-
Platform Channel Swift The platform channel swift app is the same as platform channel but the iOS version is in Swift and there is no Android version.
Notes
Note on Gradle wrapper files in .gitignore
:
Gradle wrapper files should normally be checked into source control. The example projects don't do that to avoid having several copies of the wrapper binary in the Flutter repo. Instead, the Gradle wrapper is injected by Flutter tooling, and the wrapper files are .gitignore'd to avoid making the Flutter repository dirty as a side effect of running the examples.
