Re: [orca-list] abiword accessibility

[Mike Gorse <mgorse alum wpi edu>]

Hi Majid,

It's a known issue on the abiword side; its document window lacks an 
AtkText implementation, so orca won't be able to see the text.

I wrote a patch for it a while ago 
(https://bugzilla.abisource.com/show_bug.cgi?id=4736), but it hasn't been 
committed afaik.
