Hi,
An organisation I do some work for are talking about me having a log
in so that I can look at files available on their server. They use
Team Viewer. The only experience I have of Team Viewer is whe I run
it to allow a sighted person to help me with visual problems on my
computer - I haven't so far used it to connect to other people's
machines.
I struggle to understand how this could work with a screen reader,
though this organisation thinks it should work. As far as I
understand it Team Viewer provides a view of the remote machine's
screen and allows the user to interact with it and control the remote
machine. I can't conceptualise how this would work in an accessible
way for a screen reader.
Has anyone any experience of Team Viewer and a screen reader? Can it be done?
I also don't really understand why/how Team View is used to access
files anyway - why not just download them? That's probably a question
for the organisation, not here but any thoughts welcome.
Catherine
