Re: [orca-list] [POSSIBLE SPAM] sometimes orca announce the wrong subjectin thunderbird



Hi,

No, I haven't had the time to look into this or get sighted confirmation of the behavior. In fact, I haven't taken the time to figure out a way to reliably duplicate the problem. The troubling thing is that, when it occurs, I get the same erroneous subject provided in the message list appears as the title (indicated when the message window gets focus as well as when using Alt-Tab or Orca-enter to determine the title). As soon as I get the time to look into this, I'll post my findings to the list and produce a debug.out.

I haven't tried to reproduce it, but it sounds like it might be a thunderbird bug if the title of the message window is actually wrong. Is it orca reporting the title of the message window wrong or have you got sighted confirmation of the title?

Yes, I can confirm this behavior.

In fact, the behavior, in my experience, can get worse. The mistaken subject line becomes the title of the window when that message is opened. Frankly, I haven't had the time to look into this problem, so I haven't reported it yet. I just can't see why this problem would spill over into the window title as well, since the title, I would think, would be grabbed from the message header and not from a misaligned buffer. However... please see if you can duplicate this additional problem by opening one of your messages once they are associated with the incorrect subject.

Hi all,
I'd like to know if someone can confirm.

To reproduce try the following steps.

1. Send to yourself 4 messages. Put different subjects in each message and different text in the body. You can use for example test 1, test 2, test 3 and test 4.

2. In the message list locate the message test 3 using the up and down keys. 3. Press the up key two times so that you will land in the test 1 message.

4. Press the delete key. The message is deleted and orca announce the test 2 message as expected.

5. Press down arrow key and note that instead of announce the test 3 message, orca announce the test 2 message again.

6. Press the down arrow key again. Orca should announce test 4 but instead it announces test 3.

It seems that in this situation orca is reading the subject of the previous message.

Thanks.
