Re: [orca-list] Scrolling and Firefox

Hi Jean-Philippe.

If you have Firefox's native caret navigation enabled (F7), then Orca
not only speaks the text but re-positions the caret within that text.
That used to cause the screen to scroll, but something changed in Gecko
at some point which broke that functionality. See this Mozilla bug:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1170242.
