# Preferencias xerais

Preferences dialog box option to select which Orca keyboard layout to use, desktop or laptop.

# Disposición do teclado

The keyboard layout radio button group allows you to specify if you will be working on a desktop (i.e. with a numeric keypad) or laptop keyboard. Which layout you choose will determine both the Orca Modifier as well as a number of keyboard shortcuts for performing Orca commands.

Valor predeterminado: Escritorio

Preferences dialog box option to enable presentation of tooltips which appear as the result of mouse hovering.

# Present Tooltips

When checked, this option will tell Orca to present information about tooltips when they appear as the result of mouse hovering. Specific actions to force tooltips to appear, such as pressing CtrlF1 when an object has focus, will always result in tooltips being presented, regardless of this setting.

Valor predeterminado: non marcado

Preferences dialog box option to enable presentation of the object under the mouse pointer.

Preferences dialog box options for customizing the time and date formats used by Orca.

# Formato de hora e formato de data

The Time Format and Date Format combo boxes allow you to specify how Orca will speak and braille the time and the date.

Preferences dialog box options for enabling rewind, fast forward, and structural navigation during Say All.

# Navigation in Say All

Orca's Say All feature speaks document content from your present location to the end of the document. By default, pressing any key will interrupt Say All's presentation. However, if you check the Enable rewind and fast forward in Say All checkbox, Up and Down can be used during Say All to quickly move within the document in order to re-hear something which was just read or skip past text of no interest without having to restart Say All.

If you are reading a document within an application that has structural navigation support, and you have checked the Enable structural navigation in Say All checkbox, you can use the supported structural navigation commands in a similar fashion: H/Shift H continues reading from the next/previous heading, P/ShiftP continues reading from the next/previous paragraph, T/Shift T continues reading from the next/previous table, and so on.

Valor predeterminado: non marcado

# Announce Contextual Information in Say All

Orca can optionally provide more information about the document content being spoken, such as announcing when you are entering and leaving a blockquote, list, table, or other container. Whether or not these announcements are made can be configured independently through the following checkboxes:

Announce blockquotes in Say All

Announce forms in Say All

Announce landmarks in Say All

Announce lists in Say All

Announce panels in Say All

Announce tables in Say All

Whether or not Orca makes these announcements during navigation is also configurable. You will find similar checkboxes on the Speech page. For more information, see Spoken Context.
