[Rwp] My! Lord! am I impressed!

While i disagree n it being inefficient  on the mac side  (then again i am a purely audio person and don’t mess  with midi) I would love to see further development on this plug in. If  I could contribute financially to your puttingg aside a block of tie toto do some work on the plug in, let me know.  I am digging its useful ness so far.

THis is why both Windows and Mac version do need enhancements in order to to be comparable to something like Sonar with either JSonar or Caketalking scripts.

>> Jamie, in answer to your question, I just opened it up, hit command+T to create a track, then went into the track strip, found the volume, vo+shift+down arrowed to interact with it, and then did a vo+up arrow.  Yes.  I was able to increment and decrement the slider with absolutely no issue at all.

Routing the mouse then doing vo+shift+space to literally click doesn't work either.  The trick is, when you get to the text field, hit vo+space.  Then, you'll hear Voiceover say, "Double click name."  Then, you type the name of the track, then hit return to apply the change.

>> You guys just let me know if you'd like me to proceed with setting it up.  It probably wouldn't take me but about 30 minutes at most to create the list, and get it all configured on the back admin end, so it's totally totally conveniently something I can do, and am extremely willing to do.  You all just let me know.

>> 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.

>>> 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!
