Re: [orca-list] word echo and read all not working in google docs

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

Another update.

I just started a new presentation in google slides with the looks theme.

While Say all is fine, editing objects can't be done.

The moment I enable braille support, Orca started to say that the side
is read-only and tabbing around to select title or body does not work.

Can this be a problem introduced by Google off late?

I will try with other themes.

By the way this problem is not happing with google docs and sheets.
