I use control + option + left and right arrow to move between elements: I will paste what VoiceOver says from the beginning of the window to the end (I don't know the exact position of the elements). I will also try to give you a detailed account on how the interface looks like for a VoiceOver user.įirstly, I open OmegaT. I will try to describe in detail what I'm doing in OmegaT in order to clarify what bugs I encounter. It is written in Java, and the graphic interface comes from there, plus, the way we display the translatable parts is quite complex so, yes, there are probably tricky things in the user interface that confuse VoiceOver.

Apologies for that.Īlso, understand that OmegaT is not a 100% native Mac application. I'm based in Japan so there's going to be a delay in my replies. If you have a good introduction to VoiceOver somewhere, please let me know. Since I am not familiar with VoiceOver, I'd like you to run me through what you're doing and how you're doing it. Maybe VoiceOver is a bit better but from your comment it seems that there still are important issue left. We have never used OmegaT with VoiceOver but in the past I have heard that Linux based screen readers did not work well with OmegaT. I am the person behind the Twitter account for OmegaT where I saw this forum message referred to, and also a "non programer" member of the OmegaT team. I'm sorry that you're running into this problem. It's not impossible to use the software, but it takes a lot of time to edit a segment. So, I'm wondering if there are any work-arounds for this. I used multiple networks and the behaviour was the same. And it's not because of the Wi-Fi network. And I also tried creating a new project when not being in class, but the editable text didn't appear as editable. I must first move the cursor from that spot and return to it again to view what I've written.
This bug is very strange and I cannot explain it: whenever I am in class (online or offline) and I create a project, the text from the current segment which I am editing works without any problem, but when I return to the project for the second time and navigate with the arrow keys, VoiceOver won't announce the text and as I'm editing, the changes won't appear on my Braille display. I need to stop interracting with the popup group and then return to it in order to select another option.Ģ.
Because there are many items in a popup group, I think, when navigating through it, the focus returns to the first option in the field and I cannot choose another option. When creating a project, there are some dialog boxes with popup groups. Is anyone using OmegaT? It is a CAT tool for translators which, to me, seems mostly accessible, but I have some problems, which also occur in other apps:ġ.
