[orca-list] Attachments in evolution

[VÃtor Oliveira <vitoroliveira2008 gmail com>]

Hi: Usually I use thunderbird as my client email. But, as in "send" menu what is present is evolution, yesterday I tryied to use evolution. I'd configured an email acount to check the way as it was working and I received an email with an attachment. Wel I wont to save the attachment, but I couldn't find the iten in any menu to do it. So, I had to let it down, loos it and pass again to thunderbird. Please, wouldn't some one tel me where and how can I save an attachment in evolution? Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone,

I have a few suggestions for some features I would like to see in Orca.

1.  Firstly and most importantly I would like to see braille available
upon opening the preferences for each application. The reason for this
is Grade 2 support.  For instance, I don't like Grade 2 in
gnome-terminal (my own opinion) but I like Grade 2 in my e-mail and I
wouldlike Grade 2 in gedit.  Now another suggestion to go allong with
this is to have braille uncontracted at the current word.  this way if
you have say for instance a command you can read the command in Grade 1.
It would be good to have Grade 2 as a option you can set on the fly. So
in otherwords, a keystroke could be assigned in the Orca key bindings
for this.

    

I have just tried here using control insert space (for application
specific settings in evolution) and I had a braille tab. I couldn't find
anything about contracted braille, but I haven't tried setting that up.
Your comment about a key press is a good one.

  

2.  I would like to see some more navigational keys inOrca.  I see there
is tables, headings, list. But it would be nice to have the following:

e and Shift E:  edit boxes

C and Shift C:  combo boxes

B and Shift B:  buttons


R and Shift R:  radio buttons
I think that would make navigating a page a whole lot smoother at least
for me and I think others as well.

    

I believe this has already been answered. Also I personally question
whether this sort of stuff would be better in a firefox plugin and only
the "basic" and "essential" navigation stuff is kept in orca to try and
keep things fast.

  

3.  In festival I notice that some words are pronounced incorrectly, I
will try to start a dictionary and get Festival's speech more precise.
So I'll use the pronunciation editor inOrca.  Would it be feasible once
i start doing this to submit the pronunciation dictionary to subversion
and have it added innewer releases of Orca?

    

Is the problems festival specific as you seem to be saying? If so I feel
orca is the wrong place again, we aren't all using festival and
potentially festival corrections will mess up things for those using
other synths with orca. I don't know much about festival's workings, but
I guess it must have some sort of dictionary, and the synths dictionary
is the place for synth specific corrections (unless things like
speech-dispatcher has a driver specific dictionary, in which case that
could be used).
