  Out of interest, can you actually adjust the sliders for volume, etc. in, say, the track view? I ask because I realised the other day that the base accessibility code for the UI toolkit REAPER uses for these controls is actually open source. I took a look at the code and, like on Windows, I couldn't see any code for making adjusting these controls accessible, even though it does indeed make the values readible. Of course, I could just be missing something, hence my curiosity...

    Guys, I'm going to keep this e-mail, unlike my normal nature, very terse, and incredibly short/sweet to the point, as it probably won't effect a lot of you.  It's Reaper related yes, but only somewhat indirectly.  I think though you should read this.  If it's over 2 paragraphs long, I'll vbe shocked, so  just go ahead and read it.  I think you'll be glad that you did.

    So, as a lot of you know perhaps, I am both a Windows as well as a mac user.  Well, I decided today, what the heck, let me install Reaper on my Yosemite machine and check it's accessibility out, if there be any at all.  I must say that I was not very hopeful.

    Folks?  I? am! blown away!  It is flawless!  I have yet to find a screen that doesn't read!  All the buttons are seeming to be completely properly labeled, all the preferences screens read correctly, even the actions screen is totally! totally! accessible.  These developers really! really! deserve a huge! amount of credit.  This is wonderful!  Cockos just gained even more! respect from me.  Not that I didn't have it before, but now, I really! have very high hopes for this DAW!  I know one thing:  I definitely! am e-mailing their support and congratulating them on such a fantastically accessible recording sollution.  This is absolutely awesome!

    Thanks for letting me share my utter joy!

    Chris.
