Re: [orca-list] I wound up rewriting Mouse Review



Hey Kendell.

If the toolkit being used is Gtk+, then the tooltips are normally
exposed as the description and Orca should already be presenting the
description unless there is duplication or serious chattiness problems.

If the tooltip is shown by pressing Ctrl+F1, Orca should also
automatically speak it when it appears. If neither of these things are
happening, then I need more details.

hi

I haven't noticed much of a difference when testing the new mouse review
functionality but I did notice something I've been wondering about.
Would it be possible to enable the "show tooltips" option to announce
when orca's arrowing around, not just when using the mouse? The tooltips
attached to desktop icons are usually helpful and describe what the
icons do, so could help new users.

Thanks

Hey all.

I don't know if any of you use Mouse Review (which is not the same as
Flat Review). But if you do use it, please check for regressions as I
unexpectedly rewrote it. (Unexpectedly because I innocently started out
writing some methods to be shared between Flat Review, which I am
deliberately rewriting, and Mouse Review. In the process, I found so, so
many things broken in Mouse Review that I largely torched it and started
over.)

I'm going back to Flat Review now. <tired smile> Thanks!
