Hi all,

Sorry for the cross post, but I really need help here.

Being back on Slint, not related to this, however, my Qemu Windows VM is now
in working order.

The issue I'm having is that Orca grabs the number pad, even after having
pressed ALT+CTRL+g to give the keyboard to the VM.

yep thats normal behavior from orca.

I know there is a way to make Orca "sleep" in a particular window, but I
cannot recall for the life of me how to do this.

there is no such function in orca.

If anyone can help, I would really appreciate it.

you can desable orca when you using vm. or you can configure qemu evdev passthrough.
the second one is better option.
i recommend to read [1], [2] and [3] regarding qemu evdev.

Thanks so long.
