Re: [orca-list] Why feedback of Orca in OS Linux is Annoyingly slower than NVDA in OS Windows? What Should I do for it?



When I'm trying to review the screen using flat review, most of the time it is because I need to find a certain spot and simulate a mouse click or I need to spell a word where my caret is, usually when browsing, but also when I find a button, an element in a drop-down box or another similar item that I need to be able to spell. I tend to care more about what is on the screen in the current window at this point than what is in the current object. I rather like the idea of "current" keys not using flat review unless flat review is toggled on either by using flat review navigation or by explicitly toggling flat review on. But a whole new layer of complexity that is object navigation must be available only to users who know what they are doing and explicitly want this behavior. The last time I needed NVDA for anything, I found it fairly easy to use overall, but there were two things about it that made me want to throw my computer out the window. Those two things were the browsing virtual buffer and the rather convoluted hierarchical object navigation that is nothing at all like what someone looking at the screen would see, and caused me much pain just trying to get around my screen in places where tab focus and other keyboard focus things didn't work as well as they could have. Is flat review perfect? by no means. But the behavior and performance of flat review must be improved wherever possible. It must not be shoved aside for something as esoteric to the end user as object navigation.
