Re: [orca-list] Changes/ finetuning for Progressbar Beeps



On both screenreaders you can have only spoken percentages. 
Well, on orca for sure, I am almost sure on nvda you can have progress spoken. 
Beeps are default there I think. 
I would think for an alternating scheme as you propose one would want a few beeps between anouncements, say 
an announcement every 10 secs or 20% which ever 
came first, and if someone wanted beeps they could be  every second or so if things updated quickly, every 2 
secs or maybe 2.5, if progress is slow. 
I rally prefer setting each individually however as  is partly the case now, i.e. we can turn one on or all 
three types of progress. 
I would like more control over beeps interval however, see my other msg.

I remember hearing progress beeps on NVDA and also being pretty lost, as i
did not know how high they were supposed to go.

I wish both Orca and NVDA could give just a percentage via espeak, or if
beeping is a must, then alternate between current stage and final beep.

So if final beep were 400hz., then beep alternating 300hz 400hz, 310hz
400hz, 320hz 400hz, 330hz 400hz, and so forth.

Best,

Fernando

I’d like progress beeps that pan from left to right instead of using pitch, because most of the time I 
don’t know exactly how high the pitch goes.

Hello,


I have looked at the issue you have linked to and I am somewhat shocked that Nolan's patch has been put 
aside with somewhat disrespectfull attitude.


To us non musicians or not very sensitive to individual tones it might appear as something what may not 
be needed however I know some people who might really benefit from having clean predictable like 
implementation Nolan has suggested.


Can you Chrys and Joanie get back to that please and reconsider it?


Greetings


Peter

Hi Joanie, Hi List,
I did some finetuning on the progressbar beeps caused by userrequests.
You could find them attached on that ticket:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=758328 <https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=758328>
I made two changes:
1. make the beeps more short.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=330508 
<https://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=330508>
2. Ignore Interval for the beeps. That only make sense for Output that needs "time to present". 
People like to activate both; Beeps for an progess gues, the voice/ braile output for precise 
information in big intervals.

What does others think about that here?
cheers chrys
