Description Sergey Boyko

2012-02-07 03:35:32 EST

Build Identifier: M20110909-1335

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
0. Run JAWS 12
1. Open Eclipse
2. Choose menu 'File/New/Project...'
3. Press "Ins+B" (this commands JAWS to read all information from the dialog).

Actual: 
JAWS reads all controls equally so that one cannot figure out which one is disabled.

Expected: 
JAWS should read disabled controls with some prefix/postfix like "disabled".

This is working as expected. To see this, open Notepad (Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> Notepad). Select Edit -> Replace...
Type INS + B
The Find Next, Replace, and Replace All buttons are disabled, but JAWS INS + B just says their names and does not say that they are disabled.
