Chrome vox keys not working on Ubuntu #161

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. install the Chrome Vox extension on Chrome under Ubuntu
2. read the instructions at http://www.chromevox.com/en/keyboard_shortcuts.html 
"Chrome Vox" key is supposed to be Ctrl+alt
3. try ANY keyboard shortcut

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Does nothing.

Note that the Tab key does work, and read links, but you can only navigate 
through links with that. No way to read the content of the web page.

Either it's totally broken, or the documentation is incorrect where it says
" on Windows and other platforms, the ChromeVox keys are Control + Alt."

It works with mouse, but a screen reader with navigation based on mouse is 
completely useless. How is a blind person supposed to use a mouse??

What version of the product are you using?
latest
On what operating system? Ubuntu 14.04
