[RWP] Adjusting Parameters of Certain Plugins

[indigo]

Roy, I wonder if we're getting a little difference in what screenreaders 
are seeing in Reaper?
Both with NVDA and Wineyes 6.1, While in the track view, after pressing 
shift+P to bring up the parameter list, after up/down arrowing to a 
parameter name; I need to tab down once from the list to place focus 
onto the edit box, I need to tab down twice to place focus on the slider.
and here's the peculiar thing I hadn't noticed before:
Not only left arrow lowers the value and right arrow raises the value, 
as you say, but down arrow also raises the value and up arrow lowers the 
value.
I don't ever remember finding a situation anywhere in any program where 
left/right  arrow and up/down arrow did the same thing.
Also, as in many other places in Reaper; holding down any of the arrow 
keys causes values to scroll.
Also, as I thought I remembered, page up lowers values by increments of 
100, page down increases values by increments of 100.
Also, the home key jumps to 0 and  the end key jumps to 1000.
Are you getting the same in Jaws, with focus on the sliders, up and down 
arrows also changing values, or do only left and right arrows change values?
Thanks,
Indigo L
