Re: [orca-list] Bullets and Numbering in OOo Writer



That feature is working fine for me.  In fact, if one uses one of the other bullet styles of bullets, it will give a different description of those bulletd items.  To get that extra detail however, you need to go to the bug where I posted a patch and apply with 'git am <patch-file>' in a local git branch to get the additional coverage.  The fix Joanie applied works great but with Speech Dispatcher and OpenTTS, you need to turn punctuation to 'all' to get it to work fully.  My patch corrects that additional problem.

Again, it's not that big of a deal, but it is something that needs to maybe be looked into, or again, is my pc just being stupid.

You know, I will say this,

I did update Orca as I said to the latest build, using git clone.

I wonder if maybe in the latest build I would a gotten maybe some things got broken.  I really highly doubt it, inceedibly seriously, actually, but I'm not going to discount anything at this time and place.

I never heard "??" at any time before or after the change.  But to
answer Bill's part below, I didn't give key echo any thought because I
was mainly addressing text being spoken when you cursor over the
document.  I usually use echo by word when typing; I'll have to
checkout echoing of keystrokes by char the next time I'm in Orca.  I'm
doing this mail from the console right now so my results vary.

when there is a bulleted list, Orca says question? Before everything
instead of announcing it's a bullet.

I thought that was kind a bizarre.

I still get somewhat goofy behavior I can't explain after the patch.
With Key Echo enabled, now both espeak and voxin say "capital" as I
type.  It was pretty annoying, but when I turned off key echo, and
enabled "echo by character", it seems to work ok.
