Hi,
OK I think that the biggest problems are two:
1. Not announcing if the track is selected or not while moving with up
and down arrows
2. inaccessibility of "keyboard shortcuts" part of the settings dialog.
For the point 1, moving with up and down arrows across thracks simply
does not announce anything.
For the point 2, if I go to keyboard settings and TAB beyond the search
dialog, the tree or list of keybindings is not spoken.
Do you think this could be improved?
Thanks,
Vojta

HI Vojta,
the developers of Audacity are aware that the accessibility under
Linux is very limited. Audacity uses the wxWidgets library for the
graphical user interface. This does contain a framework for making the
custom controls in Audacity accessible, but only on Windows. So
problems with Orca not reading the names of some controls can not be
easily fixed. For this to change the accessibility framework in
wxWidgets would have to be extended to work on Linux.
However, there are probably some navigation problems, not being able
to reach controls by tabbing, or the focus getting stuck on a control
that might be able to be fixed.
If you want to supply more technical info, then just post it on this list.
David.
