Re: [orca-list] Icon Tray



Hi Will
If the current GTK implementation doesn't support this, how do some of the other panel icons expose their labels? For instance, the volume control applet, the clock, and Ubuntu's fast user switch applet? What makes panel icons different from any other icon that exposes an accessible label? Are they using different applet routines to interact with the panel?

Hi Dave:

I believe there's a comment and a request here:

Comment: the icons in the panel just read as "icon". Ideally, the application would provide the accessible name for the icon and Orca could expose it. The current GTK+ toolkit implementation doesn't support this, and we're tracking this via http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=547475 .

Request: allow users to define their own names for icons. Orca currently doesn't do this and we don't have a feature request in our system for this right now. If we were able to address the bug referenced above, would you still want this feature, and how high of a priority would you put on it?

Is there a plan to include a labeling facility for items in the icon tray? For instance, the icons for power management, network connection management and update management aplets just read as "icon".
I'm using Orca 2.24.4 with Gnome 2.24.
Thanks,
Dave

The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at or repair.
