Xfce 4.16 Thunar right click menu no underscore

I've been running Xfce 4.16 on both Linux Mint 20.x and Debian Testing for awhile now and one thing I can't figure out. In Thunar's right click menu none of the options are underscored. Not even the Custom Actions that I have made and had underscores in 4.14.

This is not a huge issue until I want to create a new Custom Action. I wouldn't want to duplicate a system defined action. I've looked through this forum, checked Xfce bug reports, and Googled for help but could find none. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Xfce 4.16 Thunar right click menu no underscore

Hello and welcome.

Gtk version 3.10 disabled menu mnemonics (the underlining of the shortcut) from being displayed by default. However, while scrolling through the context menu, you can press Alt to have them display for that context menu instance (provided you don't have gtk-enable-mnemonics disabled in your GTK3 settings).
