# Ordes de lectura

In addition to the caret navigation commands which are part of GNOME, Orca provides a number of commands which you can use to read a document.

In the lists that follow, you will see several references to "KP". All "KP" keys are located on the numeric keypad. You will also notice that there are different keystrokes depending upon whether you are using a desktop or a laptop -- or more accurately, whether you are using Orca's Desktop keyboard layout or its Laptop keyboard layout. For additional information, please see the Keyboard Layout topic.

# Atributos de texto e texto seleccionado

Orca has a dedicated command for obtaining the attributes of the text at the caret location. In addition, if you use Orca's Where Am I commands from within a text object in which text has been selected, Orca will announce the selected text. Orca's command to speak the current selection will also perform this function in a text object.

Present the text attributes: Orca ModifierF

Perform basic where am I:

Desktop: KP Enter

Laptop: Orca ModifierReturn

Perform detailed where am I:

Desktop: KP Enter (double-clicked)

Laptop: Orca ModifierReturn (double-clicked)

Speak current selection: Orca ModifierShiftUp

# Link Details

If you are on a link, Orca's Basic Where Am I command can be used to announce the details associated with the link such as the link type, if the link is visited, the site description, and file size. If you would instead prefer dedicated command for this purpose, you can bind Orca's Speak Link Details command to a keystroke. Please see Modifying Keybindings for information on how to do so.

# Browse and Focus Modes

Orca's Browse and Focus modes let you switch between reading and interacting with web content.

Switch between browse mode and focus mode: Orca ModifierA

Enable "sticky" focus mode: Orca ModifierA (double-clicked)

Enable "sticky" browse mode: Orca ModifierA (triple-clicked)

# Toggling Layout Mode

When Layout mode is enabled, Orca's caret navigation will respect the on-screen layout of the content and present the full line, including any links or form fields on that line. When Layout mode is disabled, Orca will treat objects such as links and form fields as if they were on separate lines, both for presentation and navigation.

Orca provides a command to switch between Layout mode and Object mode. This command is unbound by default. Please see Modifying Keybindings for information on how to bind unbound commands.
