Hi,

We have PowerBuilder desktop applications (windows 10/win32) that are having accessibility issues and we are investigating on what can be done in the area. We currently are in the process of upgrading from PowerBuilder 2017 R3 to PowerBuilder 2019 R3. I found the accessibility conformance report as below and I wonder what the plan is to address the issues mentioned in the report?

Best regards

Thanks Armeen, I missed that. I found issues with R3 and the W10 built-in "Narrator" screen reader. There is a ticket open for that one.

Windows Narrator is not so great. Specialized reader like Jaws should work fairly well. Of course, there are some k own limitations documented in our VPAT report.

Thanks for your replies. I guess we'll have to do a test to see if we run in to any of the problems mentioned in the report.

Niklas -

   What are the issues you are experiencing?

   In the past, say PB2017, there was an issue with running your code and getting "Accessibility error" messages. That has been resolved with PB2019R3.

Thanks! We'll resolve this in an MR for PB 2019 R3.

I just noticed that spelling too and was going to post something.



When is the planned MR? I would like to deploy our application with that if it will be released soon.
