Re: [orca-list] Latest Orca master gets stuck in LibreOffice Writer

[Joanmarie Diggs <jdiggs igalia com>]

That sounds like a broken LibreOffice accessibility tree. Orca doesn't
control the caret in LibreOffice. It just presents the text in the
document in response to caret moved events. Assuming it's getting caret
moved events from LibreOffice, it's having difficulty getting the text.

If you can send me a full debug.out as described at the link below, I'll
take a look: https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/Orca/Debugging. If you're
also able to send me the document used to reproduce the issue, it may
prove helpful.

Thanks!
