Re: [orca-list] Sound icons

Hi Vojta,

The feature you are speaking of is called Earcons and I, too, wish Orca supported them. I have no idea as to how they could be done, though.

Warm regards,

Alex

Hello.


Is some way in Orca to replace for example buttons, checkboxes, links, etc with sounds?

Example:

I will see OK button with Orca. Orca don't say button, but plays sound. It would hat sounds for checkboxes, lists, radio buttons, etc. Is it possible to make it or is it for example in SOPS? I didn't see this in SOPS. Work with sound icons would be better for me than speaking OK button, when it would make nice sound and not speak. I had some screenreader a few years ago, it was on Windows and it had sound icons.


Thanks.


Best regards


Vojta.
