Re: [g-a-devel]What exactly is Visual Focus Indicator.



Hi Narayana, 

The visual focus indicator shows which widget on the screen has focus. When a 
widget has focus its visual appearance should be different that when it does not 
have focus. The ichange in appearance is different for different widgets. It 
helps any user, not just a user with a disability, in that one knows that the 
widget which has focus receives a key typed on the keyboard.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

I was reading Gnome accessibility draft at the following link:
http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gap/guide/gad/index.html.
In the User interface guidelines section of the draft, I came across
'Visual Focus Indicator'.  And also there is another section 'Testing
for Accessibility' where few test cases are given for Visual Focus
Indicator.

What exactly is this Visual focus indicator.?  How does it helps people
with disability in using an application.?


Regards,
Narayana.
