Re: [libreoffice-accessibility] where's the accessibility?

hi,

i just had time to check it out a little bit better.

here are some examples:

Using NVDA daily build Main 5723, java 7 update 9 with accessibility bridge:

Writer:
Start writer and then open the export as pdf dialog. you might be 
figuring out that you can't navigate the dialog with the tab key. or 
actually you can but the accessibility bridge seems not to know what to 
do with that dialog at all.
also when you wrote something and you exit you can't read the dialog 
where it asks you if it should save the changes to the document.

calc:
start calc then enter some numbers for example in a1 you type 422 then 
you down arrow to go to the next cell and enter 319 in a2. then you 
arrow back up again to a1 and you might figure out that the screenreader 
kind of gets interupted by saying something of toolbar and other stuff.


there are also more things like it seems that the options dialog seems 
not to be accessible sometimes.

i read somewhere that IBM symphony has been discontinued and IBM might 
donate some code to LibreOffice.
Let's hope they also donate the accessibility code as well cause i heard 
it works nicely with windows screenreaders.

greetings,
simon
