Need help for 'Navigation issues at desktop level'

[leena chourey <leenagour gmail com>]

Dear list members,

While exploring screen reader for desktop navigation issues, some queries are required to answered by potential users. Some of you may feel these are basic questions and everyone should know. Then also I request you all, please reply following queries, so that further exploration will get right direction

• Desktop is the first GUI screen after booting process. It gives easy & direct graphical interface to view and access frequently used items quickly. But what is the significant of Desktop for a visually impaired person? B'coz as I think GUI is nothing for vision impaired person, but still Desktop can give easy & direct graphical interface to view and access frequently used items. Mean user need not to open file manager-> desktop directory to locate an item.

• If yes, What all other uses of Desktop for blind user?
  
• And what operation (like traversing/searching) are required on desktop items?
  

Thanks & regards
Leena C
