<title>Text Attributes Preferences</title>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The term "text attributes" refers to all of the font, style, alignment,
|
|
and other formatting associated with a given character or series of
|
|
characters. <app>Orca</app>'s <gui>Text Attributes</gui> page allows you
|
|
to customize which text attributes <app>Orca</app> will present in speech,
|
|
along with the order in which they should be presented, and which ones
|
|
<app>Orca</app> will indicate in braille.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<section id="table">
|
|
<title>The text attributes table</title>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The text attributes table is where you specify what attributes will
|
|
and will not be presented and under what conditions. Each row consists
|
|
of four columns.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<list>
|
|
<item>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<gui>Attribute Name</gui>: The name of the text attribute.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</item>
|
|
<item>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<gui>Speak</gui>: Check this checkbox if you would like
|
|
<app>Orca</app> to speak this attribute when you press
|
|
<keyseq><key>Orca Modifier</key><key>F</key></keyseq>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</item>
|
|
<item>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<gui>Mark in braille</gui>: Check this checkbox if you would
|
|
like <app>Orca</app> to "underline" this attribute on your
|
|
braille display.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</item>
|
|
<item>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<gui>Present Unless</gui>: This editable field allows you to
|
|
specify when an enabled attribute is not of interest.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
For example, by default the "underline" text attribute has a
|
|
value of "none". This causes <app>Orca</app> to inform you
|
|
about underlined text as long as the text is actually underlined.
|
|
If you always want this attribute to be spoken irrespective of
|
|
whether or not the text is underlined, the <gui>Present unless</gui>
|
|
column should be empty for underline. In addition, you should be sure
|
|
that the <gui>Speak</gui> column for underline is checked.
|

<p>
|
|
Beneath the list of text attributes, there is a <gui>Reset</gui> button
|
|
(<keyseq><key>Alt</key><key>R</key></keyseq>) which will restore
|
|
the values of the table to what they were when the dialog was
|
|
first displayed.

<title>Rearranging the order of presentation</title>
|
|
<p>
|
|
When you initially display the <gui>Text Attributes</gui> page, all of your enabled
|
|
attributes are placed at the top of the table in the order in which they
|
|
will be spoken. There are four buttons which can be used to rearrange
|
|
the order of presentation.
