Re: [libreoffice-accessibility] anyone using Libre Office with theDolphin screen readers?

Hi Tom, yes Java is active in Libre Office according to the Java Ferret 
program that comes with Access Bridge.  I only have one instance of Java 
installed and that is the one that shows under java in the options menu.

Best regards,

Tom

Hi :)
I have forwarded this to the Users List just in case anyone there knows 
anything about "Supernova" which seem to be the main problem.

"The problem I am having, and it is a pretty serious one, is that
Supernova is not able to read the menu bar or the pull-down menus at
this point.  I am not positive whether the problem lies with Libre
Office or with the Java access bridge version 2.06."

Have you been able to check that java is active in Libre Office?

Tools - Options - Java

Which version does it say is being used by Libre Office?  Also which version 
of Libre Office are you using on your Win 7 system?

Regards from
Tom :)

Hi everyone.

I’ve been using the older Open Office program for quite some time on my XP 
box using the older Java access bridge.  Now that I’ve got a windows 7 
system I had to get the newer Java access bridge and I decided to start 
using Libre Office since it is still being developed.

I had a devil of a time getting the new Java access bridge installed, trying 
to make sure all the files were copied to all the right places but I am 
pretty sure I managed it.  Now I am to the point of actually getting Libre 
Office to work with Supernova version 12 from Dolphin.  I mainly use the 
writer so that is what I will talk about here.  The document portion of the 
application is quite accessible, I am able to move around and read and write 
and select text using Supernova, in fact it is more responsive than the old 
Open Office.  The problem I am having, and it is a pretty serious one, is 
that Supernova is not able to read the menu bar or the pull-down menus at 
this point.  I am not positive whether the problem lies with Libre Office or 
with the Java access bridge version 2.06.

I had a similar problem with Open Office and I believe there was a choice I 
had to change in the view section of options, I cannot remember precisely 
what.  I have looked through the view section in Libre Office and have not 
found anything that appears to change how the menus are displayed.

Sorry to make this so lengthy, if anyone has any suggestions for me to try I 
would love to hear them, as I said I really like the way the program works 
in most ways, it is much more responsive than it used to be.

Thanks in advance.

Tom
