Accessibility / screen reading #284

Closed elsassph closed 3 years ago

elsassph commented 3 years ago

Is there any screen reading functionality? It's a requirement for some apps on Tizen and I believe an option on Rdk.

Hi @elsassph

Could you elaborate on what you're looking for a little bit more?

Best regards

Hi @elsassph

The links you provided unfortunately don't work for me, but I get the idea. We usually implement those as feature requests (e.g. recently added magnifying shader - which is not released yet but part of master - you can check out this example). Some of them are not fit to be in lightning core, but it is possible they could be in SDK or build as third party libraries elsewhere. Answering your question, there are no accessibility functionalities in lightning core itself.

Best regards

Ok this is super odd... Using search on the Samsung website I can find the pages but they are oddly 404 when linking it them...

Thanks for the answer anyway.
