Description Kevin McGuire CLA 2002-04-30 14:06:13 EDT
When you compare and get an editor, the "ignore whitespace" switch is a toolbar 
buttons.  These are not accessible.
Comment 1 Jean-Michel Lemieux CLA 2002-04-30 14:25:18 EDT
Compare adds these buttons to the toolbar. I suppose that they should be in a 
menu as well.
Comment 2 Erich Gamma CLA 2002-05-16 15:00:49 EDT
increased prio since it is accessability related
Comment 3 Tod Creasey CLA 2002-05-29 09:16:06 EDT
Note that this does not prevent section 508 compliance as the button is still 
accessible using the tabs
Comment 4 Kevin McGuire CLA 2002-05-29 19:41:08 EDT
I think this is sufficient and we can close.  I didn't know at the time that 
tab was enough.
