Re: [orca-list] Automatic focus mode as a result of structural navigation is now configurable

["B. Henry" <burt1iband gmail com>]

I tried both adding the two lines you give in the below email to an existing customizations.py file that 
worksfine, 
andmaking a new one with only these two lines. 
Neither will allow orca to start here. Ii even tried switching desktops in case ;my fluxbox wasn't handling 
something.
    import orca.settings
   orca.settings.structNavTriggersFocusMode = False
Is indentation critical here, if so how much?
If not, any ideas as to why this isn't working for me?
thanks,
