Re: [orca-list] confused on keystroke for accessing child window

[Krishnakant <krmane openmailbox org>]

Hi,
Now I have confirmed that alt and grave have a sure problem.
If I am switching between two windows of a same application, it does 
announce the title of the other window in that app but as soon as I 
release the key combination, focus is back at where I was.
If I am in pidgin, a new chat window's title is announced but focus is 
back at the buddy list window.
Can any one reproduce this?
I see same effect in Thunderbird.
Happy hacking.
Krishnakant.
