Hi MC,
What do you mean by that? What should be accessible in this message box? Did you try using our 'WinMessageBoxManager' component: http://help.infragistics.com/NetAdvantage/WinForms/2012.2/CLR4.0/?page=WinMessageBoxManager.html?
I am checking about the progress of this issue. Please let me know If you need any further assistance on this.
Hello Mithum,
The use of Infragistics components for accessibility is available through use of Microsoft Active Accessibility framework. Although JAWS supports the use of MSAA framework to perform screen reading, Infragistics doesn’t test nor support the use of JAWS with our components. When performing testing of Accessibility for our components, we utilize Microsoft Narrator MSAA standards. There have been recent changes made to the Microsoft Accessibility standard with the introduction of Microsoft User Interface Automation. These changes may affect the use of applications such as Microsoft Narrator to perform Automation. Also, we discussed possibilities for expanding our customer options for implementing accessibility support with our components.
Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this matter.
I have created case number CAS-115048-P1B9L0 to assist you further with your inquiry. I will use this case to provide you with updates for Development ID 141203, which has already been created for forum post:http://es.infragistics.com/community/forums/t/79495.aspx
Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this matter using the case created.
Hi Boris,
I meant that the message box should be able to be read by Jaws software. The Jaws software is used for blind people and it reads out the text of the software to blind people. Like when a windows message box pops up Jaws reads it title and then the text in the message box. So when i have a pop up with infragistics message box pop up the Jaws software does not recognize this message box where as it recognizes an windows message box. So i wanted to ask the inragistics team if thye have a solution for making this infragistics message box readable by Jaws
