Orca debug output whilst testing this problem. (64.20 KB, text/plain)
2008-02-04 16:26 UTC, Rich Burridge 		Details

Description Rich Burridge 2006-08-18 16:33:14 UTC 
To recreate:

* Turn on accessibility if you haven't already done so.

* Start Orca (the screen reader in GNOME 2.16)

* Start gedit

* Hit Control-P to bring up the Print dialog.
  Initially this shows two printers:
  "Create a PDF Document"
  "Generic Postscript"
  Selection is on the second one.

* Hit the Up arrow to select the other printer.
  Orca doesn't speak/braille the new printer information.

See bug #347691 for a lot more detail on this problem
(in particular comment #15).

Anyone want to whip up a patch for this?
Comment 2 Willie Walker 2007-05-16 19:05:51 UTC 
Patrick, any interest?  If so, any time?  ;-) ;-)

Orca debug output whilst testing this problem.

This problem appears to be fixed now.

Orca and gedit are running, and Control-p is pressed to
bring up the print dialog. Details of the first table cell 
of the current printer are spoken at line 662 (via a "focus:"
event).

Insert-F11 is pressed to get it to now speak a row.

At line 716 , the Up arrow key is pressed. One of the events
that is now generated is an "object:active-descendant-changed"
(at line 842), and this results in:

SPEECH OUTPUT: ''
SPEECH OUTPUT: ' image Create a PDF document   '

being spoken at line 986.

We didn't used to get "object:active-descendant-changed"
events for this situation, so presumably a fix for another
bug has had the pleasant side-effect of fixing this one.

Note that I have the latest patch applied from bug #499835,
and I suspect that's helping. That patch *really*, *really*
needs to be committed to SVN trunk. Li, could you please do
this before everybody in China goes on vacation?

Thanks.
