Re: [orca-list] When there is selected text and the cursor is moved with the arrows, the orca does not read the text to which the cursor was moved

[kk's Programming Hub <kkproghub gmail com>]

The fact that previous line gets unselected is correct.

But it should read the next line.

Interestingly do this experiment with a slight alteration.

Have a blank line between the first and the second line of text.

Now select the first line and use down arrow.

It results as you said.

But pressing the arrow 2 times would give the normal behaviour.

Meaning the event of text being unselected dominates the process and the
immediate locus of focus does not report correctly.

Now since the next down arrow does not have an unselected text to
report, it works correctly.
