Overview

Fixes #1189 by forwarding the child's click event to the parent menu.

The issue: The menu trigger isn't clickable via TalkBack (screen reader) on Android. You can select the menu button, but clicking it does nothing. It works fine without a screen reader, and on iOS with or without VoiceOver.

Test Plan

<MenuView
  actions={[{
    id: 'share',
    title: 'Share Action',
  }]}
>
  <Pressable>
    <Text>Open Menu</Text>
  </Pressable>
</MenuView>

Without the fix:

  • Tapping it works
  • Turn on TalkBack on Android, and observe that you can select the item, but clicking it does nothing

With the fix:

  • Tapping it works
  • Turn on TalkBack on Android, and observe that clicking it now works as expected
