Re: [orca-list] kmail?

[Alex Midence <alex midence gmail com>]

Hi, Frederik,

I did a git pull on the latest qt-at-spi and tested it as well.  My
issues were as follows:

*  No menu bar access.  I never made it as far as the new account setup field.
*  No flat review was possible.  It read me the items that currently
had focus but if I wanted to explore the rest of the screen, I got
dead silence from all the number keypad except for the dash which just
told me it was leaving or entering flat review
*  Text entry fields did not echo back what was typed when proofing:
I tried putting something in the search field just for kicks and it
would read it to me if I tabbed to the search field but if I wanted to
go char by char or word by word to make any changes, I got dead
silence both from arrow keys and from numpad.

Incidentally, I did change my theme from Oxygen.  I went with KDE 4
and Radiance.

Thanks.
alex M
