[Nvda-dev] Python .exe applications which are using QtCore4 for GUI creation are very hardly to accessible with NVDA

[Mgr. J. C. <ch...@de...>]

Dear core developers,

    Eventhough NVDA is able to access those applications bestly, even DCM 
based screen readers are not able to do so so well, there is one big issue.

Listboxes and other GUI elements, which are created by using QtCore4 while 
programming Python applications are not accessible. Would somebody of us try 
to develope new revolutionar algorithm to get those information? The QtCore4 
is used in many today's Python programs compiled to .exe form, and because 
Python programming language is being used more and more in many freely 
awailable applications, this is issue.

Visually impaired users are not able to force developers to use Wxpython 
instead of QtCore4 for creating GUI, and to be empatic to them, try to 
imagine, that somebody of US would have to modifi Python source code 
designed to use QtCore4 and make it compatible with Wxpython.

    My kind suggestion is to try to makesomethink to access also those user 
interfaces of applications written in Python.

    The examples of applications, which are using this technique: if 
programmers are incorporating descriptions to The buttons, NVDA is able to 
get this information by using The navigatorObject_devInfo script.
Also if The button read objects description is checked in The object 
presentation dialog windowof NVDA, The text information can be detected 
while getting The focus on those user interface elements. But not every 
Python application which is using Qt core is designed to enable NVDA to get 
those information.

The direct download link for very complex Python application for managing 
Windows partitions is:

    Would You try to analyse The GUI of this application?

    Thank You very much for Yours support.
