Re: [orca-list] Try te first usable Skype preview with Orca

["Hwaen Ch'uqi" <hwaenchuqi gmail com>]

Greetings,

I seem to keep having issues with skypeforlinux. I have updated to
8.56.76.101 and am using orca-3.35.4pre. When I enter on the command
line

skypeforlinux --force-renderer-accessibility --enable-caret-browsing

nothing changes. That is to say, I can access menus with ALT-F10, but
pressing enter on any of the options results in total silence. Thus
far, I have found no other way of accessing anything on skype. I am
using ubuntu-18.04. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you so much.
