GNOME 3.6
- Caret and Focus Tracking in gnome-shell magnifier:
- Joseph fixed the main caret tracking problem in his focus tracker, based on mgorse's suggestions. The code now tracks the caret.
- Joseph, put together a patch, uploaded it to the bugzilla, and emailed the a11y list.
- There is still an issue of a delay when focussing on a gnome shell widget (St), and when the Atspi event is returned, it contains no accessible (? or maybe no component).
- Next step is to try and write it in C.
- There is still an issue of a delay when focussing on a gnome shell widget (St), and when the Atspi event is returned, it contains no component.
- ACTION: Joseph to confirm that joanie's python standalone focus tracker demo still works.
Regarding focus tracking, Ale is going to try to write the tracker in C/GObject/glib. He is going to follow the architecture in Joseph's JavaScript tracker: taking Atspi events, and exposing them using the standard gnome signal technique (emit(), connect(), disconnect(), etc).
- Coler effects in gnome-shell magnifier:
- Joseph has uploaded two glade files showing possible UI's for the new color effects in the magnifier.
FWIW, Joseph favours this one: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=676817#c5
A screen shot of the above is here: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=219602&action=edit
- Joseph has been working on modifying the gnome-control-panel zoom-options.c code to make use of the proposed UI. That code is nearly ready; hopefully there will be a full patch to attach to bug soon.
