Re: [orca-list] Orca master, Chrome unstable gmail problems

[Andy Borka <sonfire11 gmail com>]

Hi,

Using Google Chrome unstable with flags generally works. This is what I have in my setup:

in .profile:

ACCESSIBILITY_ENABLED=1

export ACCESSIBILITY_ENABLED

in google-chrome.sh:

google-chrome-unstable --force-renderer-accessible --enable-caret-browsing

It worked fine until chrome-unstable had an update yesterday. When I tried to run chrome-unstable without the above flags, Orca was able to access the contents of the pages I visited. However, accessing it for the first time left Orca in a state of limbo. It has now affected using Chrome with the above flags.

1. Start Orca master
2. Put ACCESSIBILITY_ENABLED=1 in your environment.
3. Start Chrome unstable (latest update) with above flags.
   
   
4. Try to access the internet such as www.google.com
5. Close that instance of Chrome.
6. Start Chrome without the accessibility flags.
7. Try to access www.google.com

Actual results: Orca is acting unreliably and has experienced extreme lag. In fact, the normal way of accessing gmail doesn't work.

Expected results: Both instances of Chrome should be accessible. At very least, the instance with flags should work as before.

Unless this is a regression in Orca, but this didn't start until Chrome updated.

Orca master, Chrome unstable, Ubuntu 20.04.

selection to work"? Mind writing this in the form of steps to reproduce?
