Dear All,
A few of you have asked about the accessibility of Vienna Instruments
from time to time. Unfortunately, I'm not as accomplished a JAWS user as many
of you. Here is one of those cases where a little vision is a dangerous thing.
However, I'm here to report, if I haven't already done so, that not only can
JAWS read the lists in the right hand pane of the matrix window, essential for
selecting matrices which combine instrument articulations, the user can then
lock the mouse and drag a selected matrix to the left pane and load it into a
matrix slot. I never knew that you could lock and drag before.
Unfortunately, JAWS has no way of telling you where you are when you
drag. Perhaps an HSC set might be devised by someone who has V I.
I haven't bothered to look at the other tabs in the interface to say
what can and can't be done with any of them. However, the fact that the screen
isn't entirely bitmapped and can be read by JAWS is a plus in itself.
As always, combining this with track templates and a little sighted
assistance at the beginning will make one of the world's finest virtual
instruments more accessible than I had originally thought.
K.
