= Getting Started After Installing with Orca
|
||||
|
||||
Now that the system is installed, you'll need to log in with your user account
|
||||
password. But, Orca isn't speaking at this point. To turn it on, press Alt +
|
||||
Windows + S. The Windows key, from now on, will be called the Super key. This
|
||||
keyboard command is the usual command for turning on Orca. Orca will say "screen
|
||||
reader on." Now, enter your password, and press Enter.

to press Alt + F2, type in "orca" all lowercase, and press Enter. You'll hear
|
||||
"screen reader on" again. Now, you won't have to turn on Orca again during
|
||||
logging in, and we'll set Orca to turn up automatically after log in as well.

== Configuring Orca
|
||||
|
||||
To configure Orca, press Insert + Space. This will bring up a window with
|
||||
several tabs. Spend some time configuring Orca, then you can apply the changes
|
||||
to see how they work, before you close the window. If you want to learn Orca's
|
||||
keyboard commands, press Insert + H for "help." Then, you can press keys to see
|
||||
what they do, or press F2 to get a list of global commands, or F3 to get a list
|
||||
of application-specific commands.

== Other options and notes
|
||||
|
||||
To set a keyboard command for turning off and on Orca, go to the Keyboard
|
||||
Shortcuts preferences under Hardware preferences. You can also set the capslock,
|
||||
Windows, Alt, and other keys to act as other keys, like having the Capslock as
|
||||
an additional control. If you close a program, like VLC, and accessibility seems
|
||||
to freeze, press Insert + H, then F2 to bring up an accessible window. You may
|
||||
close the screen reader shortcuts afterwards. If Orca becomes unresponsive,
|
||||
restart it by opening the Run dialog, typing "orca -r", and pressing Enter.
