hi
Well, I tried again, this time setting the bookmark to the audiobooks
folder, and this time the bookmark did as expected. Orca immediately
jumped to the item, only folat review moved only, orca did not set the
focus to the icon. I tested this by highlighting the downloads folder,
before pressing orca+1 to jump to the bookmark. Orca announced
"audiobooks" and flat review jumped, but orca's focus was still on
downloads. I'm stumped
Thanks

hi

THis is wonderful! I didn't know that bookmarks worked like this. 
UNfortunately I couldn't get it to work the way you described. TO 
test, I went into my home folder, and highlighted a playlist,
called the big question.xspf in nautilus. I then pressed alt+orca+1
to set a bookmark. After a sedond delay which I don't get in gecko
controlls, orca says bookmark created. I then pressed shift+tab to
the ... what's it called, the navigation pane, and highlighted the
home list item, then pressed orca+1 to jump to the book mark.
Nothing. Orca remained focused on the home list item, and flat
review didn't move. Is orca's focus supposed to jump to the
bookmarked location, as well as flat review, or just flat review?>
I'm using gnome 3.14 with nautilus 3.14 and orca master, updated
about ten minutes ago Thanks Kendell clark

Hey Kendell.

I think we're getting somewhere. Answers inline.

content. WOuld it be at all possible to make bookmarks general
 purpose? THat is, I could set bookmarks in text documents,
and jump to my place there? I could set a bookmark on a
particular file or folder icon in nautilus, caja, etc and jump
to that icon later?

This already works. I did the following steps:

1. Get into Nautilus. On the left-hand pane I pressed Down Arrow 
until "Trash" was highlighted. Then I pressed Orca + Alt + 1 to
set a bookmark there.

2. Made sure I was nowhere near the Trash icon -- but still in 
Nautilus of course as the bookmarks are specific to the app
you're in. In particular, I arrowed up to "Home" so that it was
the selected/highlighted item. Then, I tabbed to the icon view
and arrowed to the far other side and down. In summary: I'm not
in flat review, I'm not in the widget with my new bookmark, the
selected item in that widget is not the bookmarked item. (Have I
proven to you that my bookmark and I are quite disconnected?
<grins>)

3. I pressed Orca + 1 to jump to the bookmark I set previously. 
Orca immediately said "Trash" and put me into flat review at the 
location of the "Trash" item.

Is that what you're trying to accomplish? And would this solve
the original use case you raised?

BTW, I've read the rest of your reply re flat review and find
that information quite useful. Thanks! But I'm now more
interested in seeing if we can solve your bookmark issue. :)
