Hi,
I heard about this before.
As for the speech, it would be the invisible cursor saying things
like that.
Usually that thing looks like a bubble that a sighted user sees
it when he or she hovers the mouse (to say, puts the mouse close
to) over certain notification items.
Cheers,
Joseph

Not exactly. I gather that this element pops up there, but it is
generally a notification that pops up, is read by jaws in the
jaws
cursor (or probably one of the other voices), then disappears
after
ten seconds or so.

Hi,
That one? It's normally called system notification icons (the
one's normally called system tray icons).
Tooltips are usually associated with showing additional items,
such as file and folder size, the installation path for a
program
and so on.
You are talking about the clock, network, power and other things
on the systray, right?
Cheers,
Joseph

Ah, I thought so, but when I looked up tooltips, it seemed like
they
were associated with specific items, like items in a list, and
that
did not make sense. I will have to have another look I guess.

Hi all,
I wonder what a UI element is called so I can look up how to do
it
with WXPython. The element in question is that little bit of
text that
appears in the lower right of Windows machines. It is spoken
with the
jaws cursor voice when it appears, and it is impossible to
click
using
jaws. It might say things like
"your computer may be at risk"
or
"Your device is now ready to use"
Does anyone know what it is called in wx? Thanks!
