Re: [orca-list] initial thoughts after installing plasma 5.26 beta

[chrys <chrys linux-a11y org>]

Howdy,

thanks for the feedback. For your information. you can focus the panel 
with "Meta + P" there you should be able to navigate with arrow keys 
(left right) between all available plasmoids (notification area, network 
and so on).

// Once I am in here, I hear layered pain, but no speech other than 
that. Is there something I need to do to make these other items speak? 
Also, how do I shutdown my system from Plasma?
The settings window  (KCM - KDE Control Module)  still has a lot of 
accessibility issues. so this needs to be fixed codewhise. some panes 
are already available. some are not working yet. this is because its a 
mixture of technology's. the panels what are using QT widgets directly 
will work. the others are using QML. those are currently not able to 
proxy the accessibility information (special the active focus). but its 
on my priority list :). for now maybe OCRdesktop can help a little.

for those who wanna test the current state of KDE development, you can 
check out my latest blog on patron.:
