Bug ID: 165035
Summary: gtk3: Label for editable combobox not announced by
Orca when combobox entry receives focus
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 25.8.0.0 alpha0+
Hardware: All
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Keywords: accessibility
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: UI
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Blocks: 36549
Steps to reproduce (on Linux):
1) start the Orca screen reader
2) start LO Writer with the gtk3 VCL plugin (SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk3)
3) open character format dialog ("Format" -> "Character")
4) go to the "Font" tab
5) press Tab key until focus moves to the "Style" editable combobox
Actual result:
In step 5, Orca just says "Editable combobox, regular", i.e. the role and the
current value of the combobox when focus moves to the combobox's edit, but not
the associated label ("Style"). As a consequence, it's not clear to the screen
reader user what this combobox is for.
Expected result:
Orca should announce the label for the combobox as well, e.g. "Style, editable
combobox, regular"
