I thought I'd look into building a form in a document using Open
Office Writer but when I tried to open the Form Navigator from the
forms control toolbar, Orca can't seem to read anything in it. I
first enabled the form controls toolbar from the View menu and then
from the form controls bar, I chose Form Navigator. When I press F6
to toggle around between the menu bar and other tool bars, I come up
on the form navigator but Orca will say something like, "form na" and
then say no more. While the form navigator is in focus, the only key
I can get to speak at all is the KP_Enter key. When I press it, it
just says "Form label". I can also get it to read the title bar which
says "Form Navigator" but all other keys including the flat review
keys yield silence. I thought it would be easer to use the Form
Navigator to build the form and insert the form fields. I can't seem
to figure out any other accessible way to add form fields to a
document. The online help says stuff about "Click, Drag and Drop" and
frankly, I don't do drag and drop stuff to well, if at all.
Has anyone around here used Oo to build forms while using Orca?
