Re: [orca-list] problems with teamspeak3

Hello,
Just FYI I assume the following two QT issues may improve the situation 
with QT5 once addressed.
https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-39441
https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-39419

One of them where GTK theme is breaking accessibility support to large 
extend can be worked around by selecting fusion style instead of GTK 
style for QT5 applications. If you are sighted you may get different 
look and feel but if you are blind this will most likelly not make a 
visible difference except of improved accessibility to QT apps. Create 
an enviromment variable QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE e.g. by doing...
export QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE=fusion
somewhere in your /etc/profile.d/whatewerfile or any other file which is 
sourced on login.
My favorite place with more QT configuration tips is at 
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Qt#Configuration

Greetings

Peter
