hi hmm, now I'm not sure. Either k or a would work. A makes sense though, since you wouldn't have to add clickable support to the links list. I've actually never seen a clickable. Has orca not supported them until now? Thanks Kendell clark On Tue, Aug 12, 2014 at 01:50:36PM -0400, Joanmarie Diggs wrote:
Hey Jeremy. On 08/12/2014 01:31 PM, Jeremy Lincicome wrote:Joanie, I think that having a key for clickables is a great idea. I personally have no problem with either the 'A' or 'K' keys. One question though. Will we be able to just press enter or space on them, or will we still need to do a left click with flat review?At the moment, Orca does not treat Space or Enter as Orca "commands" or things Orca might wish to intercept. And given how often one presses Space or Enter, I don't think we want Orca to start examining those key presses and key releases on the off chance you happen to be in a clickable. That would be non-performant. If we make clickables a separate creature (you navigate to it by A, Shift+A and **not** lump it in with links), then you know you need to simulate a mouse click on it. And if you arrow into it, Orca could announce it as "clickable." Thus if you found it by caret nav, it also would be clear that you need to actually click on clickables. Lastly, the Alt+Shift+A "clickables list" dialog could have an "activate" button so if you used the dialog you would not have to simulate a click.
