Re: [g-a-devel]Accessibility for clock applet

["Pasupathi Duraisamy" <pasupathi duraisamy wipro com>]

Marc, in the clock applet already there is an option for enabling and disabling

setting accessible description as "clock" will be useful, ensuring that the
description is always set for the disabled peoples.

Thanks,
