Re: [orca-list] how to change orca modifier key for laptops?

[Jacob Schmude <j schmude gmail com>]

Hi

Create an orca-customizations.py in your .orca folder and put the following two lines in it:

import orca.settings

orca.settings.orcaModifierKeys = "`"

Restart Orca after you've created this file to activate your changes.

Your .orca folder is located in your home folder.

Putting this modification in your own orca-customizations.py file will allow you to keep the orca distribution unchanged and will also insure that your change won't get overridden when you update Orca. Hopefully we will be able to do this in the GUI at some point rather than creating a customizations file.

Hi listers, 
What line do I have to modify in keybindings.py to change the orca  key from the caps lock key to the grave/accent key? Caps lock doesn't work when trying to run orca in fusion.

Thanks for your assistance,
