Re: [orca-list] Libre Office/trying out Linux for school



Stick with Windows when you work with any GUI intense applications such as PowerPoint, Excel graphs/charts, 
and embedded images in Writer. Orca or Libre office fails to comply with these requirements. I just haven't 
figured out which one is the problem.

Subject: [orca-list] Libre Office/trying out Linux for school

Hello. I am experimenting with using Linux for school.  For this reason, I started playing with Impress since 
one of my classes requires PowerPoint presentations.  So far, I've noticed a few things.  One is that when I 
am typing a title into the title box for the slide, Escape, then tab/shift tab back to the title, Orca does 
not read the title I wrote.

When I type content into the object box, Orca does not say that it is bulleted.  I don't know if this is 
because the text does not have bullets or if Orca just doesn't tell me where bullets are.

When I go to the slide show, Orca does not read the slides.

I am doing this on a fresh install of Ubuntu 17.10 that I installed last night.

I am used to using PowerPoint for this, so maybe I am not using Impress properly.  I googled using Orca with 
Impress and I found messages on this lists about problems with it.  Is there a good tutorial for using Libre 
Office with Orca?
