| Summary | 0007801: No accessibility in tab controls | ||||
| Description | When using screen readers or other technology relying on accessibility APIs, Scribus appears to refuse to put focus on tab controls when moving through the elements of a dialog. Reproduce: Try to access the page layout selection in the "New Document" dialog like "3 columns". This and possibly a non-consisten parent->child assignment make these dialoges inaccessible. QT4 does provide an accessibility API but it looks like these controls are not hooked in appropriately. | ||||

Even though this comment may sound harsh: Can you specify a real world use case for this? Page layout is by definition a visual activity/art. Why would Scribus have to consider this "bug"? |
|
|
Yes, I certainly can. Having no vision at all I use a tactile device to capture screen content and create layouts. Things simply work faster if keyboard operation is working and this is exactly the problem with the mentioned tabs. Simply try to access the layout tabs in the "new document" dialogue (3times folded etc.) or the list box which appears when selecting them with the keyboard commands. |

rolloderwikiner, is this still an issue on the later Qt5 builds? |

Recategorized this as 'Qt5 port' and am linking the qt5.x accessibility page: http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/accessible.html |
