The slides aren't images, so the slideshow shouldn't need to do much to support a screen reader (assuming they're happy with dynamic content). This comes down to our WebKit WebView widget, and I'm not sure where accessibility is on that.
Do you think it's particularly important to have this read by a screen reader? It's definitely nonessential, so the feeling I get (and one reason I haven't been concerned about it) is people would rather their (likely unconfigured) screen readers _not_ get tied up reading it at them. I don't know a whole lot about that use case, though, so I'm interested in any reasons otherwise :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubiquity Slideshow, which is subscribed to ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/986716 Title: Orca doesn't read the ubiquity promotional slides Status in “gnome-orca” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Release of Ubuntu: Ubuntu precise, 12.04 Package Version: ubiquity 2.10.16, gnome-orca 3.4.0-0ubuntu2 Expected Results: Orca should read the promotional slides while the installation is on progress Actual Results: Orca only keeps track of the percentage of the installation Probably the ubiquity slides are images, which explains why orca doesn't read them, it also doesn't explain in what step of the installation it's working, for example when copying file, it shouts the percentage, and when starts repartitioning, or installing others packages the percentage reading is reset and gives no clue about why it happened or in what part of the installation it is.
