Hi,
+1 for the Libreoffice quick starter! I'm not sure whether this helps,
but, I happen to be using orca, pulled from Master this morning; I think
it's 3.5.1pre. Using 'orca+r' for 'row header' and 'orca+a' for 'read
focused cell', work great! I seem to have calc working as well as it
did under Trisquel 5.5, after I updated Office to 3.5, and Orca to 3.3.4.
Cheers,
Dave
