I'm currently using the chromium browser for work. The job requires that
I be able to click numbers at the bottom of the page that are clickable
items, but also that I read blocks of text one after another after
activating a button. The blocks of text are survey questions, and the
buttons are for the answers. So as soon as I answer one question, I need
to be prepared to read the next question. I had this working really well
using Orca 3.36.5 and 3.36.6, but I just got 3.38 yesterday and
immediately noticed a huge performance hit. The clickable numbers at the
bottom of the page now take about 1.5 to 2 seconds to speak, and by that
time they are usually gone. The questions that I have to read are now
taking me almost 3 seconds to be spoken, which causes an awkward pause.
I also noticed that 3.38 is focusing the desktop or the MATE menu bar
sometimes when I try to click a number, throwing me completely out of
the browser window and making me switch back to it. This also wasn't
happening in 3.36.6. I was just getting some clicks reported as not
found, but I could still move. I tried switching over to git master, but
I am seeing the same problems with performance, although I don't recall
getting thrown off the browser window. I have successfully downgraded
back to Orca 3.36.6 and no longer have the performance issues. The
clickable numbers are spoken quickly enough to click most of them, and
my questions are speaking much more quickly. Thanks for any help with
this issue.
