[orca-list] Fw: Aw: Update on progress-bar beeps?



Howdy Joanie, Howdy List,
 
yay that sounds great! *Thumbs up to Luke*.
 
the statuts of the progress bar beeps could be found here:
https://github.com/chrys87/orca-beep/commits/master
 
Because of my move to my new flat, I was not able to do work on that stuff since more than a month now. But now I have internet again and mostly all my furniture are also on its place (puh).
So I would continue my work in the next days.
What works:
- the beeps on the progressbar :)
- you could configure the behaviour via two different checkboxes.
* one checkbox for enable/disable the voice announcements -> Variable "progressBarSpeak"
* the other one for enable/disable beeps -> Variable "progressBarBeep"
here I add the setting variables: https://github.com/chrys87/orca-beep/commit/62b53be2f04cbc38fe13516116db29296904b1d5
here is the commit where I integrate the stuff into the GUI: https://github.com/chrys87/orca-beep/commit/3e33b9a0a88f0f928b28f8d0b14e3648fad8673d
if I can trust the feedback (and I beleve so), the existing things seems to work quite well.
my git is (because my internet absence) a little out of date -> pre 3.18.
 
What does not work/exist yet:
there is no volumecontroll ( slider) for sound for now, but planned, i will add this until the middle of the next weekk so we can put it on the GUI
 
for the GUI redesign i did some mocups. !there not nearly finished yet!. but could be found here:
https://github.com/chrys87/orca-gui-moc
(for now there is just the mainmenu without any productive code)
the ideas is in both mocups to have a more "list" like settings structure (to be more firm with the G-C-C).
 
By the way, I recognized that if there is more than one widget + label is in a "listelement" (GtkListBoxRow) orca just announce the label and one widget. it think it would be more useful if orca announce any widget in an listentry so you have more an idea what the listelement contains.
for example if the list element is:
"testlabel" Button1 Switch1
orca announce
"testlabel" Button1
if you focus the listelement. so you have to arrow arround to see what is really in the listelement
it think it would be more useful if orca announce
"testlabel" Button1 Switch1
if a listelement got the focus.
what does the list/you think about this?
you can reproduce this with my "mocup1" (just run the .py). but this constellation i also found in the G-C-C ( i think in the mouse section, i could not recheck it currently because I m at work).
 
Cheers Chrys

Betreff: Update on progress-bar beeps?
Hey Chrys.

Any update on your work on progress-bar beeps? More specifically, do you
have something which, not counting the GUI, works?

The reason I ask is that Luke is working on a GSettings backend for us
(yay!), so I want to get all the settingsy stuff pinned down soon. And
you indicated that you wanted to redo the GUI, so I want to get all the
GUI stuff we need in soon -- even if it is not pretty.

So if you have something that works but lacks a GUI, I'll slap
appropriate widgets into the existing GUI somewhere. Then users can test
the new feature, Luke can take the associated settings into account,
etc., etc.

Please let me know. Thanks!
