Try toggling off live region monitoring by hitting Orca+Shift+\. On 01/06/2015 10:33 AM, Ryan Hughes wrote:
So I was setting up Thunderbird and it started downloading all my messages from my IMAP server. It seemed legit. It was expected to take a little while. However, orca was giving me constant updates from the "Downloading message N of M" status bar on Thunderbird, no matter what application had focus, no matter what workspace I was on. So if I started trying to type something else in the terminal, I wasn't hearing my keys echoed back to me because I had to wait to hear "eight nine thirty seven five forty one" a whole bunch. Is there some way to turn off that type of status bar thingy? In my Orca preferences, it is set to give progress bar updates every 10 seconds and its scope is restricted to the application. Is there something else I should be doing? Would this be covered if I read some kind of "how to use linux blind" tutorial instead of hopping through random pages on the vinux wiki?
