[Libreoffice-bugs] [Bug 39956] Implement the IAccessible2 accessibility API [accessibility]
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39956 --- Comment #9 from James Teh ja...@nvaccess.org --- (In reply to comment #0) Unfortunately, the Java Accessibility API is badly supported by screen readers on Windows (... the open source NVDA It's worth noting that we've done our best to support the Java Access Bridge (JAB) in NVDA. However, JAB is difficult for users to set up, enforces dependency on Java and has severe limitations and bugs as an API. To give one example, it's not possible to communicate a great deal of formatting information with JAB. Supporting IAccessible2 would definitely be a huge leap forward for LibreOffice accessibility and allows for future improvements not possible with JAB. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39956 --- Comment #10 from V Stuart Foote vstuart.fo...@utsa.edu --- Yes moving to IAccessible2 should help in eliminating the JAB mappings of UNO Accessibility API. The IBM Symphony \winaccessibility contribution to Apache Open Office is tantalizingly close as a framework for achieving the IAccessible2 implementation--seems like we are just waiting for a IBM/Appache signoff on stamping the code contribution with the ALv2 license. I think though, that even if the licensing were released today, until work starts on LibreOffice 4.0 and Apache OpenOffice 4.0, the Windows OSs and NVDA will remain dependent on the Java Accessibility with Java Access Bridge mappings. So, I am curious if the JAB provided support is really that incomplete? Or is it just that it has lacked needed attention in both OpenOffice and LibreOffice implementations? The Java AWT/Swing components of Java Accessibility API seem pretty comprehensive, as do the UNO Accessibility a11y roles and trees. What I don't have a feel for is the fidelity of role mappings achieved by the JAB, and issues of exposing a documents accessibility tree to AT. Can emerging a11y ATK 3.0 efforts like the ATK::collection interface be implemented in UNO Accessibility and mapped across the JAB to the Java Accessibility API? As I reported in NVDA#2753 - ( http://www.nvda-project.org/ticket/2753 ) the JAB based implementations are loosing AT focus within an NVDA session. Several other structural issues with AT document trees and inadequacies of UNO Accessibility roles suggest there is considerable room to improve how UNO Accessibility in general annotates elements with accessibility details. And while the scrub in preparation for LOdev 4.0 and AOoDev 4.0 begins, it would make sense to put some work into improving UNO Accessibility mappings into Java Accessibility API across the JAB. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35652 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=345750 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=652548 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36549 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

Malte Timmermann, who worked on this for Oracle, sent a message about this to the LibreOffice Accessibility list: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/accessibility/msg00163.html Summary: * accfixes2: ready for QA; was meant to be integrated *after* OOo 3.4, to make sure the new accessibility code doesn't break Accessibility on some other platform. * accia2bridge: not critical to integrate: it is Windows-only - UAA IA2 bridge - and can't break anything on other platforms; removes the Java Accessibility stuff on Windows, so better do this as the last step. * accfixes3 was intended to be the last CWS with IA2 stuff. * accstuff contains other changes, which would be either deleted or migrated to accfixes3 (accstuff was not meant to be integrated as such). * Integration into LibreOffice could cause many conflicts. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
