Description Samuel Thibault 2018-09-10 15:41:04 UTC

Description:
The background is solving https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/orca/issues/14 : text of wizards are getting spoken by screen readers, but the text of a button would be spoken first, even if it is in the middle of the text. That is because LO emits the focus event before the "active window" event

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open File->Wizard->Address Data Source

Actual Results:
the a11y focus event for the radio button is emitted before the "window active" event.

Expected Results:
the "window active" event should be emitted before the focus event, like other applications do.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Dear Samuel Thibault,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not
appropriate in this case)

If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword

Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://kiwiirc.com/nextclient/irc.freenode.net/#libreoffice-qa

Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

Warm Regards,
QA Team

ATM (tested withLO 6.3.2.2) the initial focus is apparently not on the radio buttons any more but on the step panel. Actually navigating with the keyboard from there seems just non-working, pressing tab does not bring to the radio buttons. This makes it really non-functional for blind people.
