Hello,
If you are adding new twitter account in Corebird, follow these steps.
If this is the first time you are adding Corebird there is no account configured. In this case new account screen pops up automagically on the app startup. If you already have some accounts and you wish to add some more focus the Corebird main window, keep pressing ctrl+tab until you land on the toggle button saying toggle button not pressed Show configured accounts. I know you might be wondering why most buttons are reported name followed by its role and state and this one works the other way round. It's because this button has no name only an icon and a tooltip describing the icon.
So press the space bar on this button. The list of menu items corresponding with your existing accounts will pop up. At the end there is one more item saying Add new account. So navigate by pressing up and down arrow keys and activate once you hear orca reporting Add new account.
A new dialog will show up. You can navigate by pressing tab or shift+tab in this dialog. It has the following focusable controls:
Request pin button - with the initial focus
Don't have a Twitter account yet, create one label with a link inside. Pressing enter key here opens your default browser of choice where you can register a new twitter account if you don't yet have one.
An empty label I don't know what it does. Perhaps it's used for displaying error messages.
Something that's silent when focused. Perhaps that's some sizer or other grouping like control that should not be focusable at all. We are definatelly not interested in this one.
So we will tab several times until we'll land on the request pin button and activate it with the enter key. Twitter website should open in the default web browser (Firefox is recommended here unless you know what you are doing while using other browsers) where you can login and authorize corebird to access twitter on your's behalf. Once it's authorized just select the resulting pin code you've got on the Twitter web site displayed in your browser by using shift+left or shift+right arrow keys and copy that into your clipboard by pressing ctrl+c.
Once you have your code in your clipboard go back to the corebird window either by pressing alt+tab or by using windows pane in the Activities overview on your Gnome desktop.
When you land on the Corebird window you can see a few differences as compared with the moment when you leaved that window before activating Get pin button.
Get pin button is now replaced with Retry button.
The empty label is still there so you just have to skip over it by pressing the tab key again.
The empty grouping control is still there so you have to ignore it the same way we have done before.
And finally there is an entirely new control it's a text entry labelled Pin. It should be empty unless you have accidentally typed something into it. Pressing left or right arrow key should produce beeping bell because there is nothing to read.
You can paste your text from the clipboard into this pin text entry.
Once the pin is entered correctly you can press the tab key several times in order to find a Confirm button which you can also activate with the enter or space bar key.
Can you please try this out and compare it with the results you were getting before? Can you please describe the differences in similar details like I'm describing these steps?
I find this pretty straightforward eventhough there are some ugly things here and there, however I can't see no major accessibility barriers here.
I am really curious what might be different on your system or where I might be thinking differently.
Thanks for your interest.
Greetings
Peter
