You can not fully access it with PC cursor, but you can always use JAWS cursor, that reads all the information.

It's a strange thing.. If it is the case, it can depend on the graphics card or something like this, but the fact is that I'm able to navigate on some text boxes and not on others. Are you able to navigate on help -> about eclipse text box, that presents eclipse version, etc? Best regards, Sérgio Neves ----- Original Message ----- From: "J. R.

Maybe you have to learn more about development to understand bugs, but you can read all the bug posts and comments without a password; you cannot only modify bug posts and make comments. If you have eclipse 3.5 and you try what I've written in the bug text, you'll see that readonly text boxes I describe are not readable. It's a bug that have to be corrected in order for this parts of eclipse to be usable by us. The more experience you gain, the more expertise you'll have to detect bugs in eclipse and post them to be corrected by eclipse developers.

I went to the link, but I need a password. How do you get that? Also, could you please explain what is happening? What version are you running?
