GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 624628
Orca does not announce the state of formatting toggle buttons in OOo 3.3 dev
Last modified: 2010-09-20 10:56:21 UTC
In OOo versions < 3.3 dev, items which should be toggle buttons (bold, italics, etc.) were ATK_ROLE_PUSH_BUTTON. This bug has been fixed by the OOo guys, but Orca is only speaking the name; not the state.
'tis a one-line fix: http://git.gnome.org/browse/orca/commit/?id=4cff74581db860b8e8895d6bf54fa623fcf4b2ce
