thanks, I will have a look at that, I was wondering why the preferences 
dialog sometimes opened on startup, must be when I installed with the 
default profile.

yeah, I was hoping it would be a 2 second minor tweak to a UI file that 
everyone would see as an improvement!

The help files are great, there is fantastic content in there and I do 
understand the effort that goes into that. My concern is just putting it 
in a discoverable sequence when navigating it using Orca. Maybe what I 
really want is a separate Orca user training application. Something that 
contains a bunch of radio buttons, check boxes, input fields, etc and 
labels that tell you step by step what keys to press to get you round.
