Re: [orca-list] Automatic Focus Mode when Going to Address Bar in Chrome

[Nimer Jaber <nimerjaber1 gmail com>]

Hello,

Yes, characters I type are being interpreted as navigation commands. Not every time, but much of the time on first launch of the browser, particularly. It seems that once I tell orca to go into focus mode for the address bar, subsequent visits to the address bar work as intended.

Are you finding that characters typed into the address field of the
address bar are being interpreted by Orca as navigational commands? This
is not happening to me, although Orca appears to be in browse mode.

So, I'm wondering what the problem is taht you're actually experiencing.

The current arrangement is working fine here, but that doesn't entail
that it's working for you.
