RE: [libreoffice-accessibility] LibreOffice Impress : Slide show mode with Orca seems not working

Hi, Alex,

I have never been able to use the slideshow mode effectively.  I always had to export the slide 
shows to html and read it with a browser.  Impress is very difficult to use with Orca and has been 
this way since forever.  You sound like you may have a better idea of why it doesn't work well than 
most people I've encountered who run against this difficulty.  Looks like filing a bug is the way 
to go although I've been using some form of Open Office/Libreoffice since 2010 and the problem was 
well-known and long-standing even six years ago.  I would be flabbergasted to find out that 
absolutely no one who works with its accessibility was aware of the issue and that a bug hadn't 
been already filed somewhere.  This is not new, folks.

Alex M

Did you search for an existing bug on this and/or did you fill a bug?

Are you willing to fix the bug? in that case, the best list to discuss about Orca's feedback should 
be UX/design list.

Cheers

It's up to you to help
