Re: [orca-list] Panning in Beeping Progress bars?

["B. Henry" <burt1iband gmail com>]

Sounds redudndent to me honestly, I'd like to see multiple progress bars use location so youy know which one 
is where. 
I mean, I have a good idea how much time is left by the tone.
Just my two cents, but in all honestly, there's only so much that can beheard/would prefer to use location 
for something for sure, but not duplicating 
what the tone does, or more or less duplicating it, or would you somehow use a different algarhythm in some 
progams to let me know how far along Iwas, 
is that even possible with out rewriting an application? Does remaing time and %progressed actually differ in 
any meaning ful way? I thought one was 
based on the other, e.g. remaining time would be based on percentage done devided by the time taken to get 
there and that number multiplied back to the 
remaing percentage. That's how it's done right?
