------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Apr 3 03:30:09 +0000 2008 ------- Steps to reproduce: 1. In the Options dialog, under Accessibility, check the "Use text selection cursor in read-only text documents" checkbox. 2. Open the first sample document (to be attached). 3. Use the arrow keys to move line by line from the top of the document to the first form field (this is what a user who is blind would do to access the text that precedes the first form field). 4. Move focus to the first form field by pressing Control+F5. 5. Fill out this field and use Tab to move to the next field. Fill out the next two fields in a similar fashion. 6. Note that there is some text that follows the Street Address text field that someone who is filling out this form might need to read before proceeding. A user who is blind will need to rely upon the "text selection" cursor in order to access this text, which means that he or she will need some way to easily exit the Street Address field and continue moving downward. Expected results: There would be a keyboard command with this functionality. Actual results: There does not seem to be such a command -- not one that I can find documented anywhere (help, customize dialog). 7. Ignore the issue raised in 6 and use the mouse to click on the text "More Stuff We Need to Know" thus re-enabling the text selection cursor. (If you cannot use a mouse, I did make "More Stuff We Need to Know" a heading, so you can accomplish this step via OOo's Navigator.) 8. Having exited the active form field, arrow through the lines of text. Then continue filling out the form by moving focus to the next form field. Expected results: There would be a keyboard command to move focus to the next (i.e. with respect to the present caret location) form field. Actual results: There doesn't seem to be such a command (that I can find). * Shift+F4 moves to the next group (which in this case was made to coincide with the next form field), but how can one activate the group having moved there? Does such a command exist? * Tab doesn't work. * One *could* (one must?) press Control+F5 to move focus back to the first form field followed by Tab to move past all the fields you've already filled out. But this is not ideal (and will progressively take longer and longer as one works his/her way through the form). BUT: * Mouse users can click on the desired radio button. 9. Continue filling out the remainder of the form, being sure to use the caret to access the instructions that follow the list of days. (Note that this time there is no heading one can access via the Navigator, nor a group one can move to with Shift+F4 -- even if there is some keyboard way to give that group focus). --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
