Re: [orca-list] orca and pidgin



Hi Javier:

Thank you for filing these bugs.  Sorry it took me a while to look into
this.  What I'm seeing is this on my GNOME 2.20.0 system with Pidgin
2.1.1:

 * The status setting looks like a combobox, but is actually a
   toggle button pretending to be a combobox.

 * When you tab to the toggle button, Orca just presents that
   you are on an unpressed toggle button.

 * Pressing the space or return key will pop up the status options.
   You can press up/down arrow and Orca will read the items as they
   are highlighted.

 * Pressing the return key will select a status option for you and
   dismiss the list of status options.

So, aside from being rather kooky in how they chose to use a toggle
button to implement a combobox, I think the main problem we have
here is that the toggle button doesn't seem to be appropriately
labelled.

Hi folks!
Thanks for all the tips with pidgin.
Is there a list of keystrokes out there?
I've never filed a bug report, is someone going to f1le one, or should
I go learn how?
Thanks
Rusty

I can confirm this.  My mom was over last night,
I was trying to set my AIM status to away, and
she said the only way to click on that button is
with the mouse.  There are no underlined
keystrokes, and I too found that the button is
unlabeled.  I hope this helps, if you need anything else, just let me know.

Thanks,


Guy

Hi all

Fabiano, in order to set the away status you
have to pres a unlabeled toggle button
located in the main window (contact list).

This button presents two accessibility issues
1. The button is unlabeled.
2. You can access to the possible status'
choices only if you click the button with the
mouse, but not when you activate it with the keyboard.

Anyone can confirm this in order to file these bugs?

Thanks!

Regards,

Javier

I believe you need to press space on the combo
box to select the protocol, before arrowing down through the list.

Hi folks,
So I tried pidgin today. A friend wants me to do some irc with him.
First off, there seems to be a combo box to sellect the protocal, but
it'll only let me select aim.
And, when I'm chatting with a friend on aim, my keystrokes interrupt
the speech, so I miss half of the conversation.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
Rusty
