Re: [orca-list] Your opinion on radio button and check box presentation?



Hi.
My vote is for option 1.

Responding to myself because of the unexpected answers. I wasn't asking
about "selected" versus "checked." That doesn't bother me; in fact, I
think the state words are fine. What bothers me is the ordering. So what
I was really asking is, which of the following is the Right(tm) way:

1. Foo selected radio button, Foo checked check box
2. Foo radio button selected, Foo check box checked

VoiceOver seems to have settled on version 1 (including the use of
"selected" and "checked." If memory serves me, JAWS goes with version 2.

So.... Unless people feel strongly about changing the state name, I
wasn't going to alter that.

Sorry for any confusion.

Hey all.

Given a checked/selected widget labeled foo, Orca says:

* Foo selected radio button
* Foo check box checked

I know it's minor, but inconsistency bugs me. And these feel like they
are inconsistent for no good reason. So... Is there a valid reason why
they are different, other than "it's always been that way"? Or does this
nit annoy you as well?
