Hi,
I have a GEF editor and I need to make it accessible. I have added the
getAccessibleEditPart method into my base class of all my edit parts.
protected AccessibleEditPart getAccessibleEditPart() {
return new AccessibleGraphicalEditPart() {
public void getName(AccessibleEvent e) {
e.result = MyBaseEditPart.this.getModel().getName();
}};}
But I ran into a few problems with the accessibility test when using JAWS
8.0.
1. Only the editor's own edit part can be read by JAWS, not any of its
children edit parts. As a result, only the name of the editor can be read
but none of the names of the child edit parts.
2. When using the mouse or keyboard to select any child figures, JAWS is
not able to read any of these selected names.
3. If I use the mouse to drag one of the child figure and move it within
the editor, then JAWS can read the name of the child figure when I am
moving it.
I wonder whether I have missed some important steps in GEF editor
accessibility implementation. Any suggestions?
Thanks very much.
Michele
