Re: [orca-list] Cannot read the original message in the Thunderbird composition window using braille

[Joanmarie Diggs <jdiggs igalia com>]

Thanks Patrick. Having looked at your debug.out, I have a couple of 
questions.

1. According to your debug.out, the text is being displayed in braille:

13:11:30.397648 - BRAILLE: Current range: (0, 40).
13:11:30.397668 - BRAILLE LINE:  'Hey Patrick.
                   bloc de citation'
13:11:30.397855 -      VISIBLE:  'Hey Patrick.
                   bloc de citation', cursor=0

And based on that, I would assume that the first line of my reply isn't 
just there, but is actually on the display. But that's clearly not what 
you're seeing. So is the "Hey Patrick" text there, but you have to pan 
to the left to get it? Or is it just not there at all?

2. At the end of your debug.out, I see a traceback/error. But I don't 
see why you would get that error. I also don't get the error myself. I'm 
wondering if that error is happening because you killed/replaced the 
running version of Orca at that point, or if something else is causing 
an error. Therefore, if it wouldn't be too much trouble, after you first 
encounter the error, mind arrowing down within the blockquote a few 
times? Do things work then? If not, a new full debug.out would be helpful.

Thanks again!
