Okay, guys, I don't know how to explain this any further without demonstrating for you the problem. It has nothing to do with what language the underlying program is written in, and it has nothing to do with the operating system. Firstly, I refuse to use alternative UIs that haven't been updated, and instead, you should expect a demo of exactly what I see when trying to have a screen reader interact with it; basically, in a nutshell, what happens, is that the screen reader will read all information, yet all keyboard input (such as using the enter key instead of double clicking which I don't see much of a difference in anyway) doesn't work, and then even using the specialized cursor routing functions, the keystrokes don't seem to be getting sent to the application. I guess that's a UIA issue; I don't know since I'm brand new to coding.

From what I remember of screen readers (admittedly based on work I did 20 years ago) I think they should be compatible.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Was the fancy Wix 3.6 installer made in WIX You see, it's not a bug; it's a problem with screen readers being able to communicate properly with the interface; custom controls are harder for screen readers to recognize. I honestly don't know how to "report" this one since it would require me to demo the issue; or else you wouldn't understand. I could demo it for you on Youtube if you want. The only real optimal way to explain specialized software in my opinion is via demos. -----Original Message----- From: Rob Mensching [mailto:r...@robmensching.com] Sent: Wednesday, October 03, 2012 1:17 AM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.
