Hi, I think having a universal way to start a screen reader across OS' is a great idea. My grumpy side wonders why MS gets to pick the shortcut though? Why can't they use super+alt+s, after all, we had it that way first. But, I havne't yet seen any pigs fly, nor hell freeze over, so I guess it's up to us to try and maintain some sort of standard. Therefore, I'm in favor of adding the super+enter shortcut in addition to the existing shortcut. We can't let them have it all their own way after all lol :) Storm On Fri, Aug 29, 2014 at 06:38:30PM -0500, Kendell wrote:
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 hi. Win+alt+s works fine for me. My only real issue with this is this seems to be gnome specific. Desktops based off of gnome 3, IE unity, work with this just fine. However mate, xfce, lxde, others, do not work with this shortcut. This might be why orca is moving towards integrating itself into gconf, so each desktop doesn't have to individually add this shortcut.

Bastien Nocera, a long-time GNOME developer and maintainer of (amongst other things) gnome-settings-daemon, filed the following bug today: Bug 735691 - Change default Screen reader shortcut https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=735691 <begin quoted opening report> We currently use Alt+Win+S, Windows 8 uses Win+Enter, or Win+Volume up (on tablets): http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/hear-text-read-aloud-narrator. Should we switch to that? Or add it? <end quoted opening report> Personally, I don't care much what the shortcut is, as long as we have one and the one we have makes sense. And I myself don't see any problems with the current shortcut. But if you guys have opinions, please add them on this mailing list and/or on the bug as a comment.
