Re: [orca-list] Track URL on spotify.

[Joanmarie Diggs <jdiggs igalia com>]

I just gave this a try. It looks like this is a spotify problem more 
than anything. I'll dig into it a bit more, though. In the meantime, 
here's what I had to do:

1. Move to the more button.
2. Click on it using Orca's left-click command. This is needed because
   neither Enter nor Space work on that button even when Orca isn't
   running. I have to use the mouse to click on it when Orca isn't
   running.
3. Now that you've clicked on the "more" button, a menu will pop up.
   Move to it using Orca's flat review next-line command. This is needed
   because unfortunately, this menu is added to the very end of the
   accessibility tree (after everything else in the playlist). In
   addition, Spotify doesn't give it keyboard focus. These two things
   combined mean you cannot just arrow down into it. But the menu
   visually does appear just beneath the "more" button so flat review
   next line should work.
4. When you get to the "copy link location" option, click on it using
   Orca's left-click command. This is needed because this menu is not
   keyboard accessible.

HTH.
