Re: [orca-list] Orca preferences dialog redesign

["Albert Sten-Clanton" <albert e sten_clanton verizon net>]

Greetings!

I don't have much trouble with the current design, but have no problem if a
better one is created.

Let me know if I'm mistaken, but one thing I've never seen is the option of
a key binding for changing punctuation level on the fly.  This would often
be helpful.

Thanks!

Al

Hey all.

Something I periodically hear is that the Orca Preferences dialog has far
too many options and that it is generally visually displeasing. I've been
wanting to address this for quite some time, but other things keep coming
up. And realistically, I am not a designer. At all.

Fortunately, Igalia is the gift that keeps on giving. In addition to my
being able to focus on Orca for my DayJob, we have a proper designer
(Felipe) who is going to solve this problem for us.

Felipe has asked:

So let's come up with all of the items and issues in need of addressing so
Felipe can design a proper GUI for Orca.

Thanks in advance! Take care.
