Re: Orca problems with text navigation in orca discovered

["Cody Hurst" <cdog2005 gmail com>]

Hi all,

 You know, when in openoffice and at the top left of the edit field,
and press the plus key only the first line is read and not the whole
document. also, when in open office writer, pressing f10 does not
announce that you are in the menu bar until you press the arrow keys
only then does the user know they are in the menu. Also, I think it
would be nice to know when in all applications when a menu bar is
unfocused and a menu closed from a top menu bar. a message should be
spoken like "leaving menu bar" then returns to the previous focus
point...this is all via orca 1.0 final Also I filed a bug about
announcing blank lines like saying "blank" or something I didn't get
any feed back on this. I just don't think no speech on a blank line is
very responsive and people might think orca has froze or something.
