As I stated there, I personally think that the default button in Orca's main window should remain Preferences and not Help. But I'm willing to change that if everyone thinks I should. The one thing I'd really like to avoid, however, is different downstreams making different customizations. The Orca user experience should be predictable and consistent. For both of these reasons, feedback on this request -- either here or downstream -- would be appreciated. The downstream bug is here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-orca/+bug/749700I support Alan's request to set the help button as the default button. We can give new users instructions on how to access preferences when orca starts, and all being well, the user should be able to navigate help with arrow keys, assuming the distro has set up caret navigation in yelp, and if not, then perhaps Orca should check this prior to launching yelp, and enable it.
hm, so your assuming a new user would know that they can use the arrow keys to read and enter or space to activate the button, but not that they can change what button they are on with tab (?!) I atleast for one find that to be a pretty odd set of assumptions. having orca automatically touch a users yelp config on startup seems like a bad idea to me that an app shouldn't decide to do on its own.
