yes putting the orca gui in the main settings pannel would be nice
so when you hit the orca control panel command it brings it up and
if you want you could change other settings also. just maybe put in
an apply button and a revert to previous settings button or cancel
or something like that.

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

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

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

Hi Chrys.
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!
