Hello, We have come across an odd thing with checkbutton/radiobutton: in some cases, no label is set for them because the visual context is relatively obvious through greying of what gets enabled/disabled, but a tooltip is set so the user can make sure. Similarly, there can be an entry with obvious visual context (an image), and a tooltip for the entry. I have attached a glade example which can be run with glade-previewer --filename tooltip.glade Orca does not annouce the tooltip, but only the type (checkbutton/radiobutton/entry). In accerciser, there is no Text interface for checkbutton/radiobutton (since there is no label), but there is a description which Orca could take instead. Similarly, even if it is not labelled-by something, orca could use the entry description instead. We could of course make the application use an AtkObject to add the labelling, but it looks odd when the tooltip could be enough. I'm not asking for the fix now, we can see that later, I am just wondering which way we want to fix, to know what we want to do in LibreOffice: I'd tend to think that Orca should pick up the description (actually the tooltip) as a label, do you agree? Or perhaps it could pose problems? Like, for instance because the description could be too long for being used as a label (although, if there is no other label, the description is probably short)?
