Accessibility issues regarding DTP for blind (screen reader) users #18

Closed hamidrezaabroshan closed 1 year ago

hamidrezaabroshan commented 1 year ago

There are some accessibility issues regarding DTP for blind users utilize DTP by screen readers.

  1. While navigating on the cells of a table, by pressing the up or down or left or right arrow keys, cell value is not reported by the screen-reader. cell values should be reported by the screen-reader but with applying following rules

1.When navigating between the columns by left or right arrow keys, the column's  headers and column's number are not reported. when navigating between the columns, the screen-reader should say column number, column's header, cell value.

  1. when navigating between the rows by up and down keys, the row number is not reported. when navigating between the rows, the screen-reader should say row number, row name, cell value.

note:

  1. when navigating up and down, on a column,, it is not needed to report the column numbers.

  2. When navigating left and right, on a row, it is not needed to report the row numbers.

  3. When I execute a query using SQL Scrapbook, each row of the the result table is read by the screen-reader, similar a semicolon separated line of a text, . The result should be a table that a blind user can navigate on it using arrow keys as the same ordinary tables of the database. Thanks.
