You can already get information about the range by pressing Ctrl+F2. The
message lists all the pertinant information about the instrument. E.G:

Alto Saxophone written 9 semitones higher in transposing scores Professional
range is from CSharp3 to A5 Comfortable range is from F3 to F5 Using a 5
line pitched staff

Acoustic Guitar 6 string instrument with tunings of D2, A2, D3, G3, B3 and
E4 Professional range is from D2 to E6 Comfortable range is from D2 to B5

And so on.

This would be very useful for those of us who would like to learn more about
orchestration and arranging.

Best wishes.

The colour which JAWS speaks is the colour of the note that was set through
the colours dialog and  has nothing to do with notes which are coloured
because they are out of range. 

Would it help to have an announcement made if a note is out of range? I'd
suggest messages like "out of comfortable range" and "out of professional
range".

Obviously this would be a verbosity option.

Subject: [sib-access] Instruments out of range

Dan,
In colors submenu I checked the option for instruments out of range, but
pressing F5 always says black, even if i deliberately write an instrument
out of range. Is somewhere another important setting to make this
information work?
Thanks
Claudio
