I tried the hot keys with the both native dialog ("Display Settings" with a "Brightness" Slider ) and java applications. Both Java and native dialog are themselves handling the RIGHT ARROW, UP ARROW, LEFT ARROW, DOWN ARROW, HOME and END buttons for JSlider and user can change slider value using these keys without JAWS also. but they are not handling the PAGE UP and PAGE DOWN button. PAGE UP and PAGE DOWN button don't work with JAWS either, meaning JAWS is not able to handle the keys and is not able to change component values for both native dialogs and Java application. Also, I am not able to find any component in Swing, where JAWS can change the component values using any hot key. Please correct me if I am wrong in this and JAWS can actually manipulate some component. Also, in the old implementation for MacOS , the VO can not change the Spinner/Slider values and we are adding this functionality now only. In addition to this, the functionality we are adding in slider can be used with JAWS also if we decide to provide the support for the same later. Currently, I do not see JAWS being able to change any component value in swing, so it will not be able to change Slider value too. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/2874
