Re: [orca-list] ot: eclipse/egit bug



Do you think *both* are swt bugs? someone has commented on the previous
one stating that it may be a platform bug, so... possible

Hi,

Thank you for the detailed response, please file a ticket against SWT at
bugs.eclipse.org and add me as CC so I can take a look.

Okay!
So it seems this may be unrelated, so I will describe everything here:
I have switched to gtk3 now. In particular tried to use a staging view.
This time i could see both the staged and unstaged panes and what is in
them. I couldn't add the removed file to index, but that is probably an
egit bug unrelated to all this... However:
- When I go to staging view, I land at a text field, probably to type a
commit message. I then press shift+ctrl+tab to jump out of it, for
example to "amend previous commit" or to "skip commit" depends if I am
committing or rebasing. If I keep pressing shift+tab from that moment,
after some time focus will be locked, unable to move in both directions.
However, if I switch views back and forth, then I land again at the
commit message textbox and can navigate again.
There is one other bug that I have never reported though. This happens
in other situations at times too, but if you want to reproduce it, you,
for example:
- go to console view,
- press open console, select anything from the menu like script pad
console or just anything.
Alternatively you could do something like pressing remove from launch
(if applicable), close console (if applicable), like anything that seems
to change the view structure. I even managed to trigger something like
this now in the staging view when pressing a button to remove some file
from git index.
This second bug manifests itself by focus being completely locked out.
In this specific case I cannot do anything except accessing menus. That
includes inability to switch views back and forth. This bug is long
standing and, from what I know, linux specific, never happened for me on
windows when I was using eclipse there. To recover you have to click on
something like a package explorer with flat review. In the presence of
the flat review problems in 4.9/gtk3 the only way to do this is to
(semi-randomly) click with a physical mouse.

The reason I am using gtk2 still is the flat review bug. The egit
staging view is not the only place where one can get stuck, and the only
way to rescue is to actually use flat review. I do not know if such
things happen on gtk-3 too, however, and I can look for this.

Does it happen on GTK3? GTK2 support was recently removed in 4.10...so
GTK2 won't work in the 4.10 release.

Hello,
I have reported this:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=540854
Can anyone using eclipse:
- confirm if this bug is known,
- say if there are any in-eclipse workarounds to use the staging
view,
- say if, when clicked on any entry in staged/unstaged changes pane,
orca will present anything (it is probably something for someone
sighted
to verify as I have no way of finding this)...
And for the record, i am *not* committing anything. I am doing a big
interactive rebase and trying to remove some files from index,
something
only stage view can probably do in this specific case, and I
would like
to do this without resorting to manual git command usage, ofc I
can do
that too if really needed.

What version of Eclipse are you using, and what is your OS + GTK3
version?

Thanks,
