Well guys...
Back to the root. for sure we can change the kind of beeps but that was not my question. In first place i
like to know if you like it if the beeps wont respect the intervall and if the beeps are about 0.02 ms
shorter.

4 octaves is too much, imo, if the sound is directed via the old PC
speaker.
3 is the max, imo.
It's pretty eash to test at a console:
setterm -bfreq 440
will give A in the octave beginning with middle C. 880 would give the
octave above, and 220 the octave below, and 110 the octave below that.
All other notes are decimal values in Hz.

Who scolded you? I don't read every mail that comes to this list, but care about the topic in question
and I do not remember such messages, if they were
there then I say what is wrong with someone who complains about proposals, ideas, innovation,
alternatives?
If some one did not like your idea, well they have the right and probably duty to say so, but if they
complained because you suggested something and did
the work to make it happen then they should be shot...lol
I must say that if you are saying you only use a one octave, or even two octave range for beeps from
0-100% then I think it should be expanded, 3 or 4
octaves would be brtyter for me.
But even if I wind up not liking what you did, I thank you for doing it, just as I thank everyone who
has worked on this.
I just received a suggestion to improve something I wrote last night. I may or may not do what was
suggested, but I saw the logic in it. At the end of the
day if people feel strongly enough that they prefer the "other way" than what ever is finally kept in
orca then a patch can be made publicly available.
I just hope that folks decide to use which ever system I like best or I'm gonna stop using orca and go
back to using a votrax with ms-basic on 5.25I
floppies...lol

The patch I submitted addressed this directly by pegging the range between
middle C and the octave above, making it fairly easy to know the ranges. I
wish we could have implemented that rather than scolding me for
contributing at the time, because that may address all of these concerns
(including mine as the patch author.)

I could see that working, but that’d be even more input to keep track
of. Panning beeps could be an alternative, for headphone or stereo
speaker owners, and alternate beeping could be fine for mono folks.

I remember hearing progress beeps on NVDA and also being pretty lost,
as i did not know how high they were supposed to go.
I wish both Orca and NVDA could give just a percentage via espeak, or
if beeping is a must, then alternate between current stage and final
beep.
So if final beep were 400hz., then beep alternating 300hz 400hz, 310hz
400hz, 320hz 400hz, 330hz 400hz, and so forth.
Best,
Fernando

I’d like progress beeps that pan from left to right instead of using
pitch, because most of the time I don’t know exactly how high the
pitch goes.

Hello,
I have looked at the issue you have linked to and I am somewhat
shocked that Nolan's patch has been put aside with somewhat
disrespectfull attitude.
To us non musicians or not very sensitive to individual tones it
might appear as something what may not be needed however I know
some people who might really benefit from having clean predictable
like implementation Nolan has suggested.
Can you Chrys and Joanie get back to that please and reconsider
it?
Greetings
Peter

Hi Joanie, Hi List,
I did some finetuning on the progressbar beeps caused by
userrequests.
You could find them attached on that ticket:
[7]https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=758328<[8]https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=758328>
I made two changes:
1. make the beeps more short.
[9]https://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=330508<[10]https://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=330508>
2. Ignore Interval for the beeps. That only make sense for
Output that needs "time to present". People like to activate
both; Beeps for an progess gues, the voice/ braile output for
precise information in big intervals.
[11]https://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=330509<[12]https://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=330509>
What does others think about that here?
cheers chrys
