Navigation view does not work with Arrow keys, hence inaccessible by keyboard (on specific screens)
See original GitHub issueDescribe the bug
Navigation Issue: Navigation view control is expected to navigate using the up and down arrow keys, but it does not happen. The weird thing is that when I try to do the same on the monitor attached to my laptop it works fine but just not on my laptop screen. Seems like it has something to do with the hardware configuration of my laptop screen as it works fine on the attached monitor.
Narrator Issue: The narrator is expected to say General selected 1 of 9... and similar things for all the items but it only does so on my monitor and not on my laptop screen. On my laptop screen it does so for the first tab but for the others it just reads out the first item in content of that page.
Steps to reproduce the bug
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Try to tab into a navigation view control
Expected behavior
As you can see in the gif. The smaller recording is on my monitor screen and the arrow based navigation works as expected. The larger one is on my laptop screen and it does not work. The monitor is just connected to my laptop by a HDMI cable.

Ah, I see. I thought you were talking about the [focus not being set to the selected item] issue. Good to hear that’s working for you.
Looking at your initially reported issue (arrow navigation not working with 125% scale display scale) it seems to be a “needs-winui-3” issue, in other words, WinUI 2.x versions won’t be able to ship a fix for it (the code to fix currently still resides exclusively in the OS and not in the WinUI 2 repo). I don’t know when a fix for this issue would land in WinUI 3 but the community might be able to help out the team here once WinUI 3 has been open-sourced (in case the team has no immediately available resources to tackle this specific issue).
@alekhyareddy28 This issue seems to be fixed with the newest WinUI 2.5 Preview release. Can you give that a try? @YuliKl FYI
