![]() ![]() While this is not a problem while selecting two or three contacts, mass-selection can be a nightmare. Moreover, the feature of selecting contacts is accessible as such, but again as there are no standard checkboxes in place, we are not notified whether a certain contact is actually selected or not. Everything boils down to one simple fact: since Clist Nicer doesn't represent a typical listbox class, screenreaders can't recognise it as such thus for example information about the number of items present on screen as well as the number of item currently focused are unavailable. ![]() Initially I thought adding an option for displaying the status in a text form would be the end of fun as it supports selecting of multiple contacts etc, but after consulting the idea with other blind users there's a little more work involved. only names of contacts are spoken.Ĭlist Nicer: the information spoken is the contact's name followed by its status message. If you could solve these issues, it would be perfect, but I had this discussion with you where it turned out to be rather hard.ĬlistMW: I don't remember what the accessibility there was like anymore, but I believe it was something like this of Clist Modern's, I.e. May be not worth the bother though, read below why.Ĭlist Modern: reads names of contacts only.ĬlistBlind: al information is spoken, but due to it being rather simplistic and being just an experimental project of Pescuma's back in the Miranda IM days it lacks support for various features available in mainstream clists such as selecting multiple contacts. I'm not a programmer, but I know there are accessibility libraries that make things nicer especially now that QT 5.3 is out. The core, classic contact list: inaccessible due to QT being used. I have tested all of the available contact list plugins. ![]() Various features are inaccessible or accessible in a way understandable to some but not straight forward. Currently the state of contact list accessibility in Miranda NG can be described as usable but not ideal. ![]()
