Re: [orca-list] I can not configure uppercase voice in orca preferences page

[Jose Vilmar Estacio de Souza <vilmar informal com br>]

Hi Will,
I believe to be found the cause, I think that it is related to the 
translation to brazilian portuguese.

Inspecting the function _getACSSForVoiceType in the file 
orca_gui_prefs.py, I found the following code:

----------
        if voiceType == _("Default"):
            voiceACSS = self.defaultVoice
        elif voiceType == _("Uppercase"):
            voiceACSS = self.uppercaseVoice
        elif voiceType == _("Hyperlink"):
            voiceACSS = self.hyperlinkVoice
        else:
            voiceACSS = self.defaultVoice
        return voiceACSS
----------

The problem is that the parameter voiceType never contains the value 
"default" and "uppercase".
The values are translated to portuguese( "padrão" and maiúsculas").
The value "hyperlink" is not translated, so it works correctly.

I don't know how to fix!
Thanks.
