Re: [orca-list] Prevent Orca from eating keys while in a kvm guest

[Christopher Chaltain <chaltain gmail com>]

I've been meaning to ask this question as well. Also, similarly, if I 
switch to full screen mode, I don't know how to get out of full screen 
mode. All of the instructions I read have you placing the mouse at a 
certain place on the screen and then accessing a pop up menu. I couldn't 
figure out how to do any of this with Orca, and sighted people seem to 
have trouble with this as well. I'm hoping there is or will be some 
keyboard shortcut or something that will let screen reader users get out 
of full screen mode.
