Need to Figure out this
(A) Is this a Flex Issue
(B) Is this a Flash Player Issue
(C) Is this a Freedom Scientific Issue
(D) Is this bug can be fixed by JAWS Script

Opening for QRB

No children in the flash MSAA object - this is a component bug.

Resolving as External - these will be fixed the scripts.

These may be patched in JAWS, but this is a major issue for other screen readers. Text and Label needs to expose text via MSAA. Reopening.

Deferred for Flex 3.

To workaround this issue set tabChildren="true".

Ryan Frishberg - [03/19/08 04:12 PM ]
Fixed in 861. Added tabChildren=true in the constructor for Label (Text extends Label)
