Mentioned on this downstream discussion: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-accessibility/2013-April/006404.html About how to reproduce it: 0. Orca activated 1. Navigate through the top panel (Ctrl+Alt+Tab, keyboard arrows) 2. Open network menu, navigate to one of the wifis CURRENT BEHAVIOUR Orca expose the name of the wifi selected, and if we are connected to that wifi or not EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR All the above, plus the wifi strengh, that is right now only exposed visually on the wifi icon
Anyway, probably it would be good to wait a little before taking a look to this, as there are plans to modify the interaction with several menus, including the wifi menus: https://live.gnome.org/ThreePointNine/Features/SystemStatusMenu https://live.gnome.org/GnomeShell/Design/Guidelines/SystemStatus/#Update_Proposal
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
