I would, but can't figure out how. I visited a few web sites that seemed related to filing bugs against Thunar, but didn't see anything definitive, so I bagged it. -Sam -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Biju Chacko Sent: Monday, November 10, 2008 8:34 PM To: xfce file manager Subject: Re: [Thunar-dev] Thunar and accessibility Brian J.

I worked on a11y support for ExoIconView, and it did even work to some degree, but I couldn't get it to work properly due to various gtk bugs IIRC, hence I dropped it from libexo. The tree view should work just fine, it's just a stupid GtkTreeView. > -brian Benedikt ___ Thunar-dev mailing list Thunar-dev@xfce.org http://foo-projects.org/mailman/listinfo/thunar-dev

Yup, Thunar does indeed use custom widgets for the tree view and icon view at least. I'm surprised Benny didn't add even some accessibility support; I know I've seen code from him before that's done this. Unfortunately, you've brought this up at a bad time. We're just entering feature-freeze for our next major release, so likely this won't get worked on for a while. -brian ___ Thunar-dev mailing list Thunar-dev@xfce.org http://foo-projects.org/mailman/listinfo/thunar-dev
