Hi Steve,
In my XP 32 bit daw; running Window-eyes 6.1; I tried to get what you
are finding in Windows 7 64 bit and Jaws, but just couldn't.
I selected Always on Top in the view menu of Reaper 4.32; also selected
In Dedicated Process in the Preferences Compatibility settings, but I
couldn't get either Massive or Absynth 5's interface to show up when I
tabbed.
I did get the words Bridged PlugIn May be in Top Level Window, or words
to that effect; to show up in Absynth's native interface, at Wineyes
numPad; but otherwise Absynth's interface looked the same.
When I pressed tab I just heard Window-Eyes version 6.1, same as always.
Also, I didn't get either Massive or Absynth's parameters or value edit
boxes to show up at the arrow keys, as is the case with the bundled
Reaper plugs.
Just to learn what would happen, I tried other choices in Compatibility,
In Separate Process; also In Native Interface, Not Bridged, and results
were the same.
I got no advantage from tabbing,and in the choice In Dedicated Process I
at first couldn't access Massive or Absynth's s usual interface; at
Wineyes numPad; but pressed escape and then F to return to FX Routing;
and eventually got the usual Massive or Absynth interface,which is
practically empty anyway, since it's all bit map imagery.
I returned to the default Compatibility setting, which is I think
Auto-select; but kept Always on top, which didn't seem to either hurt or
help anything.
I don't think I'm going to be of any assistance to your efforts, since
bridging 32 bit plugs doesn't make much sense in 32 bit XP; and; as I
indicated; Wineyes won't run 64 bit Reaper along with ReaAccess.
I could have tried NVDA in XP; but it wouldn't have proved much; since
until I learn how to do it I can't get anything from plug interfaces at
the numPad with NVDA.
Maybe Always on Top; or In Dedicated Process only matters to Jaws, I
don't know until I install Jaws on 64 bit Windows and try it.
Sorry,
Indi
