This version is available now for all System Access packages.
Internet Explorer
We’ve made some significant changes to our Internet Explorer-related code in this version. Please let us know if any web pages become unusable or are not read correctly.
-
Changed the rules for determining when a page is done loading. Now System Access can provide access to some web pages that it couldn’t before.
-
Optimized the virtual buffer creation code. This should result in faster page loads as well as faster buffer refreshes on pages that use dynamic HTML.
Outlook 2007
-
System Access no longer announces indentation changes when you move through a message line by line.
PowerPoint
-
Fixed a bug that caused System Access to crash PowerPoint when opening some presentations in PowerPoint 2003.
Adobe Reader
-
When you up or down arrow beyond either end of a list box, System Access now navigates to the previous or next line of text.
-
Eliminated redundant announcements when entering list boxes and combo boxes.
-
Edit combo boxes are now consistently announced as such.
-
When you navigate past a form control in the virtual buffer, System Access now takes the actual focus away from that control.
-
Added code to force focus back into a drop-down list or edit combo box after the list is closed. This is a work-around for behavior which we consider a bug in Adobe Reader; this bug is only seen when an assistive technology is in use.
Miscellaneous
-
Fixed a bug whihc prevented System Access from saying “list opened” and “list closed” in edit combo boxes.
-
System Access now announces the signal strength of a wireless connection when you move over the Network icon in Windows Vista’s system tray.
