Re: [orca-list] Broken feature: SayAll

[Halim Sahin <halim sahin t-online de>]

Hi,
Is there a chance to move the cursor e.g. in gedit to the last read 
position?

If you read the whole document and stop after a few sentences the cursor 
in gedit is not near the position you stopped reading.
So the user need to search where it stopped reading.
Thanks
Halim
