Kleopatra: Screenreaders stay silent when smartcard window is opened
Testing, NormalPublic
Actions

Description

When the smartcard window is opened then NVDA (and Narrator) stay completely silent.

The screenreaders should give some feedback while Kleopatra looks for smartcards. And when Kleopatra has finished looking for smartcards then some UI element should get focus so that the users know that they can start interacting with the window.

This has been changed:

  • A progress/busy indicator page is now shown while smartcards are loaded (unless there are already smartcards shown; in this case the update happens "in the background"). Screen readers speak the progress message.
  • The texts on the placeholder page (that is shown if no smartcards were found) are now accessible (if AT is active), i.e. one can reach them with Tab and initially the first text has keyboard focus (so that it's spoken).
  • When a smartcard is found then the first smartcard tab has keyboard focus.
• ikloecker mentioned this in Unknown Object (Maniphest Task).Mon, Nov 24, 9:00 AM
