Howdy, I am in favor for cleaning up the current GUI. I guess changing it would be ok, but I like the current layout. Thanks Storm On Tue, Aug 25, 2015 at 04:41:51PM +0200, chrys87 web de wrote:
Hi Joanie, Hi list, >>Ultimately the goal is to migrate everything over to gsettings and move the GUI out of Orca and into desktop environment control centers.Do you think its a good idea to integrade it into gcc or something? not everyone out not everyone use gnome, mate or co. there people just running a window manager. so there not able to configure orca without gcc? maybe its a good idea to provide a GUI into orca but that could be integrated into gcc? to megrate all that stuff to gsettings is a good idea. I m currently try this with ocrdesktop. its really handy. >>But given that I keep failing to get to that, if you want to redo it all, go for it! :) I would really like to give a try. By the way, is there a reason why the orca-setup.ui is not created/modified with glade? i see many differences if a open and save the .ui file in glade 3.16. i now tried to integrade my gui without using glade. its not really handy to this large XML like structure in an text editor ^^. Any ideas or mocups how a new GUI should looks like? this are my Ideas: - Many other screenreaders does provide a "context menue" similar structure. with entrys like "braille", "speak"... if you press enter ont that entrys a window appears with just the corresponding settings (NVDA did it this way i think) - An other idea could be to provide a "listbox" with the settings categorys. if you do a click on that category, the categorys fade out and you are on a new "page" with the corresponding settings. (its similar to the most smartphones). if you press esc or "back" you are in the categorys again. mybe here we could also implement an just type search for settings. i would prefer this. - we could just clean up the current GUI and do not change the behaviour. what do you guys out there think about? cheers chrys Gesendet: Dienstag, 25.

I agree about the GUI cleanup. Ultimately the goal is to migrate everything over to gsettings and move the GUI out of Orca and into desktop environment control centers. But given that I keep failing to get to that, if you want to redo it all, go for it! :) Thanks! --joanie On 08/24/2015 06:28 PM, chrys87 wrote: > thanks for sharing that ^^, meanwhile i copied TB of data for having > progress bars XD. > By the way: > > current changelog: > - i fixed the accidentally broken labels in the progress bar section > - the beep is now 75 ms > - you can now both (voice announcement and beep) enabled via the checkboxes > - gstreamer is now optional > - currently i m working on a sounde volume scale. but now i go asleep :). > > after that i have to optimize the GUI integration (but there is many > time until 3.20 ;) ). > > IMO the orca GUI code has to be cleared up. maybe i try to do this next > if joanie has nothing against it? or what about a little redesign of the > GUI? maybe more "context menu like"? > what does the list think about a new shine settings GUI? or what did you > think about joanie? > > Am 25.08.2015 um 00:14 schrieb Storm Dragon: >> Howdy, >> So the new beeping progress bars rock, but sometimes it's hard to >> figure out something to do on demand that requires a progress bar.
