Dragging and Dropping (Was: RE: Accessibility vs. Usability [was Re: some thoughts for window eyes features?]Date:
Thu, Jun 7, 2007 10:36:26 amHello All:
Discussing the mouse keys brings up something I've not been able to
master with any screen reader. That is, the ability to drag
information from one place on the screen to another. For example, in
Microsoft Access (which isn't usable with Window-Eyes in my opinion), to
set relationships between attributes the help file says drag the
attribute from the referencing table over to the same attribute you are
referencing in another table. I tried dragging and dropping, but what
happens is that I don't get audio feedback as I'm moving over to the
place where I want to drop the field.
Anybody got any good tips on dragging and dropping?
Thanks,
