Re: [orca-list] Continual reading problem



Hi,

I like the way Orca is currently reading, I clearly can hear when Orca reads a list.

Hi Vojta, all.

I can confirm what you're seeing. I did a quick test in Gedit.

What Orca does is ask the app/toolkit for the current sentence, then
the next, then the next, etc. Gtk (and possibly other toolkits) is
treating a newline as a sentence end. I can see how that would be
annoying. However, just ignoring what Gtk (and possibly others) report
as a sentence might lead to undesired SayAll behavior elsewhere. For
instance, what if the text is not a book, but list of items, one per
line? If  Orca combined all that into a single SayAll sentence, it
might sound like gibberish. So we need to find a way to reliably
identify when a newline character is a sentence boundary versus when it
isn't -- despite what the app or toolkit tells us.

Suggestions welcomed.

Are you doing say all by line or by sentence (in your Orca prefs)?

Hello,

I have the following problem with continual reading of some
texts.

I am registered in library for the visually impaired persons.
There
are
scanned books from volunteers, but some books have problem. Some
words
are divided not by space, but by enter key. I will write you
example.

Begin of the example
This is a test. In this test I will
show you, how are books
wrote.
End of the example

Windows users don't have problems with this. But Orca makes
really
long
space, when is enter key after words, not space. Please, is some
way
to
repair it? Windows screenreaders ignores enters and don't do that
long
space during reading.

Thanks a lot.

Best regards

Vojta.
