I think you'll find it helpful to try and narrow down the candidate events you are monitoring. In the case of the insert/overwrite toggle, think about what is happening when you toggle it: The text in the status bar changes, right? Therefore, were I doing this, the *only* events I would be monitoring initially in Accerciser would be object:text-changed events. If, having monitored those, I didn't get the expected events, then I would broaden things to include object:state-changed events (perhaps a label goes from showing to not showing). I only go the route you did when none of the likely/expected events are being emitted and I want to know what, if anything, I'm getting.
I didn't think you could narow it down that much. I have it now where I just checked only opjects but didn't think I could type in the name of which one to watch. My other confusion is OK, if I see what events are showing what, how do I "code for them"? What I mean is for example, the accessible-name item in the original listing I showed in a prev. message had parameters in parentheses. I guess this is so new to me, I don't quite get how it all fits in yet. From my original view of this test, the accessible-change and visible-data-changed events seemed most promising to me. Thoughts?
