It depends on how you define accessible. JAWS and Window-eyes can read many items in dialogs that System Access can't. I don't know how much work would be involved in changing this nor whether the changes would require other changes to make the interface look the same to sighted users. However, you may want to be aware of the fact that some controls in dialogs aren't accessible to less sophisticated screen-readers for reasons I don't have the technical knowledge to discuss.
I'll be curious what responses you get regarding the apparent recording bug. Gene----- Original Message ----- From: "Leland" <audacity4blind@xxxxxxxxxxx>

My name is Leland and accessibility in Audacity is my main focus. (was that a pun? :-))I started the accessibility push a couple of years ago when my wife needed a multi-track audio editor. It's taken the backseat a few times as I strayed into other areas, but am back on track. (another pun? ;-))If any of you have suggestions, please feel free to speak up. I'll see how it can fit into Audacity.While it may seem unfair, Audacity's main user base is sighted and unincumbered, so whatever we devise to add accessible behavior, we must do so without affecting that user base. Well, I don't mind inconviencing them just a little, but it is a tricky balancing act.So, speak up. Let me know what's broken as far as accessibility goes.
