Re: [orca-list] Possible bug with orca and thunderbird 3.0b1



Hi,

This problem has been known for several months. It occurs in both Thunderbird and Firefox. I believe it was Hermann who filed a bug with Mozilla about this problem.

Also, pressing Alt-F6generally will get focus into the unfocused dialog box.

Hi Michael and all.
This is confirmed as described.
I've noticed that the dialog is read switching to another application pressing alt+tab and then pressing alt+tab again to return to the dialog,

Hello,
I have noticed that since I have updated to thunderbird 3.0b1 from thunderbird 3.0a3 orca doesn't seem to speak dialogs as they appear. Let me explain with an example. When I am writing a message and then press control+enter to send thunderbird comes up with a confirmation dialog asking whether I want to send the message. When using thunderbird 3.0a3 orca would speak the dialog when it appears (like it does for any other windo which appears). When using thunderbird 3.0b1 orca says nothing automatically, although I am quite sure that the dialog has appeared as I have pressed space (as send is the default button to get focus in the dialog) and yes the message does get sent. I believe the same behaviour is happening for other dialogs such as preferences.

I am using orca from SVN trunk. When I originally updated thunderbird I was using a slightly outdated one (orca -v said orca 2.25.4pre) but thinking that may be a later version of orca may have attended to this problem I updated to the latest trunk last night, but the problem still exists.

Is this problem known? Do others observe this as well?
