Re: [orca-list] Logging out of Gnome shell 3.4

[Robert Cole <rkcole72984 gmail com>]

Hello, Jason.

Firstly, an alternative to using the Log Out menu (if you do not already 
know this) is to use the CTRL+ALT+DELETE keyboard shortcut.

I just tested this with Orca (using CTrL+ALT+DELETE). Here are a few of 
my observations (from what I can see on screen with teh magnifier and 
with Orca):

First (from what I see with magnification), when the log out window 
appears, you are given a 60 second delay before you are automatically 
logged out.

Second, the focus (at least on my Ubuntu 12.04 system under GNOME Shell 
3.4.2) seems to be placed by default on the Log Out button, so I can 
just hit ENTER once to activate the button and log out of the session. I 
also notice that the value for the time delay before the automatic log 
out changes every ten seconds (e.g. "60", "50", "40", etc).

Finally, as concerning Orca, sometimes (for me) Orca acknowledges the 
Log Out window's presence when it opens by saying "Window". At times, 
Orca reads the buttons in the window as well (the only buttons present 
in this window are "Cancel" on bottom left-hand corner of the window and 
"Log Out" on the bottom right-hand corner), but this behavior is not 
consistent. Most of the time the window is completely silent.

I am sorry that I cannot be of any further help right now, but I hope 
that these observations will be of even a little help to you.

Take care.
