Re: [orca-list] Why Orca navigation algorithms are not supporting Clickable embedded Adobe flash player objects?



Yeah, it looks liks there is a caching issue somwwhere. I can mostly work around it by telling AT-SPI not to cache children for Firefox. Ie; putting
app.setCacheMask(pyatspi.cache.ALL ^ pyatspi.cache.CHILDREN)
into the Gecko script's __init__ function.

So either Gecko is not always sending children-changed events when children are added or go away, or AT-SPI is somehow failing to pass them on / notice them. AT-SPI 2 caches several things (names/roles/states/children/parents) that AT-SPI 1 didn't to the same extent, to compensate for D-Bus being slow, so it is affected by applications not sending events in a way that AT-SPI 1 was not.

I still see the issue sometimes even with that change, though (for instance, by going to google.com and tabbing to "privacy"), so I suspect there is more than one issue.

HI,

THis works for me with a nightly firefox build and  orca with corba
at-spi.  It might have broken and gotten fixed but I really doubt that.
So I'm pretty sure a difference between at-spi2 and corba at-spi is
atleast related here.

While on this topic, I want to emphasize that flat review seems to be
completely unusable in Firefox.  Many times, one needs to be able to
look around a website with flat review because of hot spots and
similar objects.  Ever since Firefox 4.0 or so, flat review would not
allow me to review any page contents except for the menu bar, and
sometimes the status bar.

Dear core developers of Orca,
         WEBINAR services are very frequently used and unfortunately,
some of those services are requiring The user to perform click on The
Adobe flash player clickable object.
Unfortunately, Even newest stable release of Orca can not enable users
to locate this embedded Flash player object. Because those objects are
not focusable, and even Orca flat rewiev feature is helpless during
localisations of those objects, user of Orca can not use WEB pages with
Flash player embedded object.
It is very sad, because as i have tould You for many times, Orca is
having excelent ARIA live regions support. Orca is able to receive those
ARIA live regions changes and Orca can announce those changes by speech
synthesizer. This s very useful while making a chat on A WEBINAR with
other webinar participants.
Please, what is now preventing OrcA developers to support this feature?
So Flash player embedded objects with The clickable state can not be
accessed by using Orca navigation while using Gecko based WEB browsers
such as Firefox or Seamonkey?
Thank You very much.
If there is some development snapshot, which is able to do this task,
please let Me know about it.
Or if somebody of us does know about about work around, how to activate
Flash player clickable object, please let Me know too.
Thank You very much for Yours answers.
