Re: [orca-list] Tutor help messages with orca, possible doing with 2.24 version?

[Dorado Martínez, Francisco Javier <FDMA once es>]

Hi all

This would be a good feature. I know many users that learned using computer with this tutorial messages.

This feature would be a new verbosity level, "beginner" and will give help messages after e.G rolename of 
focused widget, no only give help message how to interact with the currently widget also give instructions 
how to navigate within the desktop.
E.G when in the desktop area indicate press alt + f1 to go to the applications menu etc.
I think this won't be so difficult to implement, so if this is possible I would like to help implementing 
this.

Regards

Javier

Dear List!

Yesterday I have a beginner blind user friendly idea: possible doing 
tutor help messages with 2.24 version of Orca?
If the Orca verbosity level setted up briefly, Orca spoken and writing 
braille some tutor messages for controls, menu elements how can use the 
blind user, for example with Jaws For Windows screen reader.
If the user tabbed the edit box control, Orca spoken and writing the 
braille display: type in text.
Some another examples:
Check box control: to check, press space bar.
Radio button control:To change the selection, press up and down arrow. Button control: to activate press 
space bar. Combo box control: to change the selection use the arrow keys.
Lists: to move to items press arrow keys.
Main menu (user pressing the f10 key): to navigate press left or right 
arrow.
User activate main menu item, for example the file menu and see menu 
items: to navigate press up or down arrow.

Or possible another elegant doing this feature, if the verbosity setted 
up beginner but the user not want the tutor messages hear and read the 
braille display:
In speech page of Orca Preferences Guy, must doing one radio button with 
two values:
The label this radio button possible for example: tutor messages The values: Announce menu and control help 
Turn off menu and control help

Have any people require and need this feature?

Attila
