Accessibility for combo's and checkbox [message #780744]

Hi All,
I have a text field, combo and a checkbox in the Form Editor.
All the fields are not editable. Therefore,

text.setEditable(false)
combo.setEnabled(false)
checkbox.setEnabled(false)

As a result, text field is accessible and read out by the screen reader but combo and checkbox are not read out by the screen reader as they are disabled. How do I make them accessible(to be read by screen reader). Is there any solution? Could you please help.

I found that in the eclipse plug in creation wizard, the combo is disabled there and not read by screen reader. Could someone help?

Thank You,
Madhu
