Navigating Menus (was Re: Orca Few questions)

[Willie Walker <William Walker Sun COM>]

Hi Juan:

F10 should pop up the first menu in the menu bar, and the arrow keys can
be used to navigate between menus and menu items once you've done this.
You can also press Escape to go back to where you were before pressing
F10.

With respect to flat review, Orca's been designed to follow the focus,
giving you feedback when the focus changes or the things that have focus
change.  Flat review mode is sometimes viewed as an escape mode to give
you information when the content on the screen is unorganized or you're
dealing with a ill-behaved applicaton.  As such, the goal is that you
should hopefully not need flat review for much of your work.
