Re: [orca-list] orca and thunderbird filter creation issue/ question not sure

[Peter Vágner <pvagner pvagner tk>]

Hello,


I have just tested this with Thunderbird 71 daily and it appears to work 
fine. I hope it will work the same way with Thunderbird 68 as packaged 
in Arch linux.


When setting up actions for the filter first I have to choose the action 
so I select move to folder.

Then I press the tab key and focus moves to the collabsed combobox. I 
can expand the combobox by pressing alt+down arrow key, navigate by 
using up and down arrow keys, expand folders with right arrow key and 
collabse with left arrow keys.

It would be more natural if expanding the combobox by pressing alt+down 
arrow would not be necessary but yeah, you know linux a11y is all about 
invisible workarounds these days.


Are you trying it this way?



Greetings


Peter
