Description Joanmarie Diggs (IRC: joanie) 2008-06-12 21:04:36 UTC 
Steps to reproduce:

1. Enable echo by word.
2. Launch Impress and create a new presentation.
3. Create a title and text slide.
4. Move focus to the text placeholder (the one with the bullets),
   and type single word items followed by Return.

I typed:

Hello<Return>
World<Return>
Foo<Return>

Expected results:  Each time I pressed Return, Orca would speak the word I just typed.

Actual results: Orca doesn't speak the word I just typed.

Revision #1.

Tested with OOo 3.0beta_20080429 on Ubuntu Hardy.
Comment 3 Joanmarie Diggs (IRC: joanie) 2008-06-17 19:11:42 UTC 
This fixes it nicely in Impress.  I just noticed that the issue is also present in Writer.  Try this:

1. Create a new document
2. Type the following without spaces:

    This<return>
    is<return>
    a<return>
    test<return>

We're silent.  How hard would it be to generalize the solution?
Comment 4 Rich Burridge 2008-06-17 20:36:19 UTC 
We would need to add in another role list and check for that.

I think this should be a separate bug. I'll file that.
Comment 5 Rich Burridge 2008-06-17 20:46:36 UTC 
Patch committed to SVN trunk. Moving to "[pending]".

The new bug for the oowriter issue reported in comment #3 
is bug #538835.
