Re: Accessible hard drive recovery software

I found Data Rescue versions 2 through 4 to be very accessible and I was able to recover files quite easily. I'm not sure what version they're up to but they've historically been good with accessibility. HTH, Slau > On Dec 20, 2017, at 12:20 PM, Nickus de Vos wrote: > > Hi all > Anyone used ha

where have people encountered the phrase "has alternate items" with VoiceOver

The accessibility API has an option for custom menus where voiceOver would announce "has alternate items." I know I've seen this before but I cannot remember where. I'm looking for an example of such a custom menu for purposes of pointing a developer at it to see how it is implemented. Does anyb

Fetch, Transmit & CyberDuck

I've been using Transmit for a while now and, for the first time, I've encountered a server that didn't play too well with it. So I downloaded Cyberduck. I find it to be fairly good although the upload/download status isn't visible. I also downloaded a trial of Fetch which I find to be somewhat

Re: Is Voiceover supposed to automatically save graphic labels?

2011-01-23 Thread Slau Halatyn
I've noticed that labeling is inconsistent. I've certainly labeled graphics (and VoiceOver is supposed to save them automatically) and, upon reopening the program (say, after a reboot), the labels are often gone. Slau On Jan 22, 2011, at 9:58 PM, Mike Arrigo wrote: > Haven't used this much, bu

Even though VoiceOver sees this as being a checkbox, it doesn't appear as a checkbox to sighted users. It's an icon that is sort of a help icon. When one clicks on this help icon, it simply explains that the volume will be bootable. It does seem kind of redundant since CCC already indicates that
