ikloecker moved this task from Restricted Project Column to Restricted Project Column on the Restricted Project board.
ikloecker added a project: Restricted Project.

All issues have been addressed except:

  • No accessible feedback when checking/unchecking user ID

This is caused by a bug in Qt which doesn't report the checkable state to AT-SPI.

Another issue is that orca doesn't read the text of the certification key combo box. orca only reads the label of the combo box. Qt has a weird implementation for passing a value-changed event of a combo box to AT-SPI because "Combo Box with AT-SPI likes to be special. It requires a name-change to update caches and then selection-changed". Needs to be checked on Windows.

This would of course all be also in vsd32

ebo added a subscriber: ebo.

This is already in 3.1.26. I only wasn't sure if I should make another ticket for remaining issues before closing that is the only reason why it is still open

On Windows with NVDA the combo box is read.
