Priority: P3
Bug ID: 120009
CC: [email protected]
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: OO 3.3.0 does not respond to Windows 7 built-in Speech
Recognition
Severity: normal
Issue Type: DEFECT
Classification: Code
OS: Windows 7
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: PC
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: OOo 3.3
Component: AccessBridge
Product: ui
This is a usability issue (User Interface).
While many non-Microsoft applications respond to the built-in Windows 7 speech
recognition engine, OO 3.3.0 does not.
Thus, those working in environments were interaction with a keyboard and mouse
is not possible (presentation, teaching/training, chemical, nuclear,
biological, medical as examples), and those who are unable to interact with
applications through the use of a keyboard and mouse (see Americans with
Disabilities) are unable to interact with the Open Office software suite.
What works:
- Can paste text from the clipboard into the open document.
- Can scroll up
- Can scroll down
- Can page up
- Can page down
- Can close the document
What doesn't work:
- Cannot dictate text
- Cannot edit text
- Cannot select any menu item (File, Edit, View, Insert, Format, etc.)
- Cannot invoke any toolbar icon (print, save, center, left justify, font,
etc.)
- Cannot position the cursor
Please note that third party software applications such as Firefox work with
Windows 7 speech recognition, so OpenOffice should also work with Windows 7
speech recognition.
By the way, this bug report was dictated into Firefox using Windows 7 speech
recognition.
