Re: [orca-list] Thunderbird daily and Orca master

[Rob Whyte <fudge thefudge net>]

Hi Joanie,
These are my steps, using the Applications key right click on an email.
Once the email starts speaking push Control to halt speech.
Push 'H', I hear the font spoken in a combo box, push 'i' to complete
the word Hi and I hear 'wrap around no list items' or something similar.
I just updated and will look for any other behaviour that has improved.
In Thunderbird do you Compose in HTML?
It must be quite tricky in the body of an email for Orca to know when
the user wants the field to be edittable and when they want HTML navigation.

Thanks
Rob
