See also Orca bug #539056 which is blocked by this issue. http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=539056 Steps to reproduce. 1/ Start Orca. 2/ Start ooimpress with the presentation attached to the Orca bug: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=113271&action=view Focus is initially on the scroll pane containing the current slide of the presentation. 3/ Tab to the first placeholder. 4/ Press Delete to delete the contents of the placeholder. 5/ It's not obvious where focus is al this point, so I pressed Tab to move focus to the second placeholder, then Shift-Tab to move it back to the first placeholder. 6/ Press Delete to delete the placeholder. From the Orca debug log attached to the Orca bug: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=113273&action=view the Delete key press in step 4 is at line 430. The Delete key press in step 6 is at line 668.

As mentioned in the gnome issue that is referenced above the relevant notifications are alreadymade: The deletion of the shape and the creation of a new placeholder shape in its place are properly notified by child events. As far as I know there is no way to represent the relationship between the two shapes (one of the two is no longer a member of the accessibility hierarchy.) But then again the geometrical information together with the temporal proximity of the child events may be enough to detect it anyway. Because of all this and because I do not know what events else to broadcast I change the resolution of this issue to WORKSFORME.
