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.

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?
