Trying to Implement Accessibility Options in a Freeform Datawindow using the AccessibleName, AccessibleDescription and AccessibleRole Properties.   When turn on the Narrator and Tab to these columns, it will just read the data that is in them and then either say 'Edit' or 'Editting' instead of the text that is in the AccessibleName.   When we use a 3rd Party tool like Fusion, it does the same thing for a column of edit type, but for a dddw or ddlb, it seem to function as expected.   has anyone implemented these Accessibility Properties successfully.   we are using Powerbuilder 2021, Build 1506.   i confirmed we have the pbacc.dll and PBAccessibility.dll deployed with the application.  Also tried adding [Data Window] ACCESSIBILITY=1 to Pb.ini file.

 

Thanks
Jim Beck

Try setting accessibility to 2 and also make sure you are testing on Windows 10.  If problem still persists, please open a support ticket with a test case. Thanks!  https://www.appeon.com/standardsupport/newbug
