Hi all,
I'm running Edgy with Gnome 2.15, and am experiencing major weirdness in
terms of accessibility when attempting to use it with Orca.
Some of the issues I've noticed are as follows:
1. Focus in gaim seems to be messed up. I was able to create one account,
a freenode irc account. But now, after doing that, I can never seem to
bring focus back to the main buddy list window, as for whatever reason, it
doesn't seem to appear in the alt tab order.
2. Very strange things are happening in gnome terminal. Orca tracks live
events well enough, but if I attempt to use flat review, it's all over the
place. The read current line command seems to start at the top of the
window, rather than at the last location of the cursor. Another oddity is
that not all of the window is accessible via flat review. in other words,
if my screen fills up with data, flat review stops before actually reaching
the last line on the screen.
3. Open office writer is completely inaccessible. Orca won't even read the
menu bar or the help dialog. If I attempt flat review, all I get is
"panel".
Can anyone else confirm some or all of these issues?
Thanks,
--Al
