Hi, it's
Annabelle.
I'm not sure how to
put this, so for now, I'll just make it short and sweet. I want to design a user
interface that is accessible to both sighted and blind folks alike, and I'm
wondering, what is the perfect way to design the controls so they look like
those found on the browser of the Windows Operating System? Also, how do you
change colors for foreground and background so they'll be recognized when the
button or control is navigated to by either the PC Cursor or the JAWS
cursor, then press JAWSKey+5? For example, I want to make a button that is
"Light Sky Blue" on "Forest Green". How would I program those parameters? Is
there a way to make the program in a plain text editor like Notepad?
Specifically, I'm making a program where you can toggle sounds by
checking/unchecking checkboxes, and load them by pressing "Open" buttons in each
slot. You can then adjust the Volume, Volume Range, Rate Of Change, and L/R
Balance with sliders. There'll be left-right sliders for the "L/R Balance"
slots, and Up/Down Sliders for the "Volume", "Volume Range", and "Rate Of
Change" slots. I'm also wanting to put other common controls like Radio Buttons,
"Open" dialogs, Listboxes, Dials, and other user-friendly
controls.
