Bug 253265 ToolItem names are not being reported to screen reader
Reported: 2008-11-03 14:37:25 | Status: resolved fixed

Build id: N20081102-2000 - Run Eclipse - Turn on VoiceOver - Use Ctrl+Option+arrow keys to move the VoiceOver cursor (black rectangle) to a tool item in the Eclipse tool bar. - VoiceOver should speak the name of the tool item (which is the same as the tooltip). This works on Carbon, but I believe I had to just make tool items speak their tooltip (since most applications - including Eclipse - just use the same string for the tooltip and the tool item's accessible name). I don't think I ever got the full SWT accessibility API working for tool items.
