Open kaveinthran opened 7 years ago

kaveinthran commented 7 years ago

hi, I am a blind coputer user, and currently uses windows with the help of screen reader to acess my computer. I was so fascinated to find a software that can help me download an manage course. but, I was so disappointed it was not readable by my screen reader after the installatiaon. I hope these suggestion will be considered:

  1. do try to make sure all controls are keyboard accessible,
  2. if you are using web interface, also make sure it's keyboard accessible and try to have descriptive texts for your controls, and icons,

I am only able to launch the program, and do nothing more then that, to give you some idea ,

you can download a free and open source screen reader called nvda from http://www.nvaccess.org/download/ try to run it and use with your program, you will understand my frustration,

thanks

I am sorry about it not being screen reader accessible, I had previously never really thought about this too much, I will take your suggestions in account while working on the next version.

Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience caused.
