Tried, but didn't find your original mail anymore, its actually at least 4 years ago... So its a bit hard to answer your question, since I will have to use my memory, which might be a little bit faulty. But as far as I remember, you didn't like the concept of ATK calls being necessary to beef up accessibility. If I remember correctly, you said something like "this should be simpler or not necessary" or what not. To be honest, back then I thought you didn't understand the issue at hand. But I was so frustrated about your reaction that I totally dropped the idea of working on inproving Ardours accessibility. Its no fun if you have to explain yourself over and over again. The patch was doing something simple like associating a label with the corresponding input field, such that the screen reader would actually know the label for the particular input field... This is pretty normal accessibility stuff, but on reject I totally lost motivation to fight windmills. -- CYa, ⡍⠁⠗⠊⠕ _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
