hi
This is disappointing. I know enough about c++ or c to at least
attempt this, but I know nothing about java script. Someone else is
going to attack this or I'm going to have to resort to filing bugs
with good comments saying what the label should be, rather than being
able to do this myself. I wish I was more of a programmer, but I'm
not, at least not yet.
Thanks
Kendell clark

Hi Kendell,

I dont know if that helps you but here are some examples how this
does

work:


Set an accessible name in xml structure (i think created by
glade)

https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-control-center/commit/?id=c72062ba6

5f9a4f587485852287881f8e4275dd5

https://git.gnome.org/browse/nautilus/commit/?id=7afbac0a64f1734842ed64e
333c9147de1cdbcd9

the same as c++ code

https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-boxes/commit/?id=2a76776e8d6247aef5

ac8970f25f7ec41c274440

assign a lable in xml

<accessibility> <relation type="labelled-by" target="label10"/> 
</accessibility> like here (line 154)

https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-control-center/tree/panels/printers

/printers.ui?id=38958903eea61d3216ae3e0d702b27bcc0b7996b#n154

here is also some useful information:

Note that in the original email he mentioned that was interested 
specifically on gnome-shell. gnome-shell doesn't use glade.

<orca-list gnome org> Betreff: [orca-list] in need of c++ code
to add accessible labels

hi all I was planning to go through all of the gnome shell apps
and control panel items this weekend that are lacking labels, set
them in the code and send in patches to the bug reports I have
open so they can be fixed. Can anyone on here give me some
generic c code to set an accessible widget label and a tooltip? I
don't need anything fancy to write callbacks since that's already
been implemented in the ui code. I just need a label and a
tooltip. Then I can hook those up to the buttons. I'm assuming
they go inside the button definition? I'm completely new at all
of this so bear with me. This should dramatically improve the
accessibility of gnome shell. Once ths is fixed I can tackle
mate. Thanks Kendell clark
