Re: [orca-devel] This patch adds Skim Read feature to OOo writer, Firefox, Evolution, Thunderbird. Please test.

Hi,
This patch is working very well. Is there any chance that support could be added for gedit too? I tried it and it just read everything. Of course I only tried briefly with a small file, so if it is supposed to work already let me know and I get a larger file to try with. I have been testing mainly with Evolution.
Thanks
Storm

When user issues the 'Skim Read' command (Ctrl + KP_Add in desktop, Orca + Ctrl + semicolon in laptop), Orca skims through the entire document, starting at the current line/ sentence, and then reading only the first line/ sentence of each subsequent paragraph. It reads either lines or sentences depending on the "Say-All-By" setting. Works for OOo writer, Firefox, Evolution and Thunderbird.
