I've attached a .gif that demonstrates how one would access the filter subscription button with only a keyboard.
@nturinski The bug is not about the accessing 'Filter Subscription' button with keyboard. Its about the tooltip associated with it is not accessible to the keyboard only users. and this bug is not just specific to the 'Filter Subscription' button but also for other controls of toolbar.
Hi @sohelmulani1998, just to clarify, is the issue that your screen reader is not reading the button tooltip when you select it with your keyboard? If so, could you please let me know which screen reader you are currently using? Thank you
@MicroFish91 This is not a Screen reader issue. This is a Keyboard issue where the tooltips associated with the controls are not accessible to the keyboard only users. If you observe the gif that I added, you can see on hovering with mouse the tooltips are visible but when navigate with keyboard those tooltips are not visible.
@sohelmulani1998 Okay, I think I understand now.
Please refer to this issue: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/52016.
This is a very special case that only affects users who are using keyboard and are not using a screen reader. This comment sums up this case quite well: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/52016#issuecomment-641096443
VS Code team has not received any user requests to add this feature and it is not supported by modern web browsers, so have no plans to pursue this at the current time. Thank you for helping us improve our product :)
