Re: [orca-list] Should Orca ever speak "frame" for windows?

[Peter Vágner <pvagner pvagner tk>]

Hello,


I think suppressing the frame is very difficult if not impossible. 
Perhaps while switching windows when pressing alt+tab we might be able 
to elliminate reporting of window or suppress the role (not accessible 
name) of the frame. However I don't know if this can be relyably 
detected or this might introduce unwanted side effects elsewhere. I don 
think supressing role reporting of all the frames is a good idea without 
trying to think about possible side effects first.


On a related note perhaps evaluating the presentation of focus changes 
when it involves handling ancestors / descendants / parent accessible 
objects is even more usefull when we are looking about streamlining the 
verbosity.

For example I do have s/mime certificates for some of my email accounts 
in thunderbird and for others I have not. Thunderbird sometimes popups a 
dialog for me that asks me about the my identity. And it sounds like the 
the dialog title is reported three times. First with no role reported, 
then with frame role and finally with a role of dialog.

I don't think this is urgent, I would just like to point out that I 
guess this might be better direction than supressing reporting of some 
roles and states globally.



Greetings


Peter
