Re: [orca-list] LXDE/Openbox menu accessibility

[Alex Midence <alex midence gmail com>]

I don't use LXDE so, take this with the proper grain of salt but, couldn't
you use different virtual desktops to manage how many applications you
switch between?  Assume you will have 15 applications open at any given
time.  You can use three virtual desktops and organize them according to
function i.e. have the internet apps like your browser, e-mail and chat
sessions open in one virtual desktop, your office productivity stuff like
Calc, Gedit and writer on another one, your music player, file manager and
calendar application on the third one and so forth and so on.  Will
alt+escape restrict itself to your current virtual desktop in LXDE or will
it switch across them all?

Hi,

your posts just made me try LXDE/Openbox again after more than 1 year as it
seems to be the more appropriate lightweight alternative than XFCE
(development state...). In general, everything works fine on my Arch box and
I am able to access applications and menus. However, I am having still the
core problem that nothing is spoken or displayed while switching between
windows with alt+tab (or backwards). I found out that you can also switch
using alt+esc which is acceptable as workaround for me, but this seems to
switch more or less randomly and takes more time to find the right tab if
thousands of things are opened up. How do you deal with this issue?

Cheers,
Jakob
