Re: [orca-list] Systray in Gnome

[Willie Walker <William Walker Sun COM>]

Hi Robin:

This area is kind of a mess right now -- keyboard navigation is 
troublesome in the top and bottom panels, and especially troublesome in 
the notification area.  :-(

For now, you can try Ctrl+Alt+Tab to get to the top or bottom panel, and 
pressing Tab and/or the Left/Right arrow keys to move around.  When you 
get to something that only says "Embedded Component" something 
uninformative like that, you should be able to press Ctrl+F1 to bring up 
the tooltip for the object, if it has one.

We (GNOME) are indeed trying to improve the accessibility of these 
things -- I can't dig up the bug numbers for you to watch, though, since 
Bugzilla is acting up at the moment.  :-(
