GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 340023
magnifiers fails tracking the caret on paragraph objects
Last modified: 2006-05-12 08:36:21 UTC
Please describe the problem: When switching to the "native" atkbridge in version 2.0.3, OpenOffice.org Writer paragraph objects no longer have the role "TEXT" (which they got by bridging through Java), but the role PARAGRAPH. This causes gnopernicus magnifier to track caret events correctly. Steps to reproduce: 1. Launch OOo Calc from a build that contains the patch for the atkbridge 2. Insert a dummy text by pressing 'd' 't' 'F3' 3. travel through the text using the cursor keys Actual results: The cursor travels out of the magnification area easily. Expected results: The magnification area should follow the text cursor. Does this happen every time? Yes. Other information:
