Greetings all, Following up my previous post regarding the apparent inaccessibility of Fission's selection and set play head dialogs, I reported the issue to RogueAmoeba's support group. I wanted to provide documentation from Apple discussing accessibility of Snow Leopard apps, but must have been looking for doc in all the wrong places.
Scott's post below contains excellent information to provide when reporting accessibility concerns for IOS apps, but I wonder if if our group can (or already has) work up a MacOs counterpart? Best regards.
