Hi,
I've recently had a play with the nightly build on a Mac. I'm not very familiar
with either macs or the voiceover screen reader, but I came across the
following issues:
1. With a track being the focus, if you change whether it is selected or mute
or solo, voiceover doesn't automatically read its updated state. I had to move
away and then back to it to get it to read this. Is there a voiceover keystroke
to read the current object so that the user doesn't have to move away and then
back? (like insert+up arrow in Jaws).
2. In the controls for selection start, selection end etc, if you use the arrow
keys to change the time, then voiceover doesn't automatically read anything.
3. Voiceover didn't read the input or output sliders in the toolbars. It just
said multiple indicators.
4. In the metadata editor, voiceover couldn't read anything in the table.
My access to a mac is limited, but I'd be grateful if mac users of audacity
would let me know if these are real problems, or if there's something I haven't
done right.
thanks,
David.

The Mac accessibility patches have been applied to the main source and you
should now be able to use the nightly builds to get quicker access to new
features and help test (hint, hint :-)).
The nightly builds can be found at:
