Screencast demonstrating the issue with Orca
This was originally reported and discussed on the a11y mailing list.
Thread starts here:
https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/accessibility/msg01102.html
When moving focus to/between the buttons in the Navigator in Writer, Orca only
announces their role and state (like "toggle button, not pressed", "push
button"), but not what these buttons are for.
Steps to reproduce:
1) start Orca screen reader
2) start LO Writer with the gtk3 VCL plugin
3) press F5 to open Navigator
4) move focus to and between the buttons at the top of the navigator
Actual result:
Most buttons are not properly announced by Orca, making it impossible for blind
users to know what they are for.
Expected result:
Buttons should be properly announced.
Screencast showing the current behavior is attached.
