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




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.

Works perfectly.

I tried this on two different setups.

It also works consistently in slides and sheets.

Say All in Orca master should now start from the correct place in
google docs. Please test and let me know. Thanks!

I can definitely reproduce Say All starting from the wrong place, so
I'll tackle that first.

Thank you Joanie.

It is really funny.

Any ways I did as you instructed.

The word echo is now working although with a 2 second lag after I
type.

I have 100 MBPS line so Internet speed is no issue.

My machine has 8 gb RAM so the machine also does not seem to be a
problem in context of Orca.

Secondly, read all still does not work as expected.

when I do caps + semicolon ";" it starts after 5 or 6 seconds and
reads
something like "explore, no suggestions collapsed " and then a few
other
titbits and starts from the beginning.

Even if I am in the middle of the document, it still starts from
the
beginning.

Is this reproducible and a known bug?

Do you have Google Doc's braille support enabled? There's a

under Tools menu, Accessibility Settings. If it's not enabled,

it.

The names of the Accessibility Settings is somewhat misleading.
"Screen
reader support" means Google Docs tells screen readers what to
say
via
live region messages. "Braille support" means Google Docs exposes
things via accessibility APIs so that screen readers can do what
they
normally do to present the document.

HTH.

Dear all.

I am using Orca 40.0 with chromium on Ubuntu 20.04.

My experience with Google Sheets is excelent (in fact better
than
with
Calc).

But with google docs it's really frustrating.

Firstly, echo by word does not work there at all.

Meaning when I write a word and press space, the word is not
read
back
to me.

Secondly, when I press caps + semi colon ";" read all does not
work.

What could be the issue?
