Keyboard/Gamepad navigation on focusable elements

Does Noesis support navigation to elements like Stackpanel/Grid ?
It seems that setting Focusable to true is not enough for Noesis. Works fine in WPF.
We can set the focus manually and the element is correctly focused. But using the keyboard or the gamepad, we can never navigate to it. It works fine on natural focusable elements like Button and ListBox. I tried different variation of KeyboardNavigation.DirectionalNavigation - works fine for handling going out of the listbox to a button but not to a focusable Grid element.

Hello,

That seems a deviation from WPF, if the element has the Focusable property set to True it should be able to receive keyboard focus by using the arrow keys or the gamepad. Could you please report this in our bugtracker and we will fix it?

Thanks.
