Re: [orca-list] An interesting issue with Orca 3.2 and Gedit 3.2

[Steve Holmes <steve holmes88 gmail com>]

I also observe something similar with Libreoffice Calc and Writer; in
these cases, when the application starts, I have to alt+tab once to
gain proper focus.  It's not the same as your situation but I think
there is either a dialog or error or something that goes away once I
alt+tab; this other window does not speak.  I used to experience this
a lot with older Open Offices but then I thought it had gone away with
Libreoffice but now it's back again <sigh>.
