Hi!
I am currently in the process of writing a screen-reader-like application
utilizing the DBUS accessibility bridge
(http://labs.trolltech.com/page/Projects/Accessibility/QDBusBridge).
While trying it out, I realized that pretty much no program correctly sets
these properties (they are properties of QWidget) - not even for the main
window.
Is there a particular reason / alternative way of determining that information
that I don't know about?
Because setting these properties would:
* Help Screenreaders and other accessibility software to correctly "read" the
application
* NOT decrease performance (qt does this by collecting all its accessibility
information in "plugins" which only get loaded if needed (i.e. accessibility
features activated)) / increase RAM usage
Any hints would be greatly appreciated.
