[Accessibility] Decorations in views not read by Windows Eyes [message #328655]

Hi,

We're having an issue with the accessibility of the Decorations API.
Specifically, we use this API to append a suffix to a project name. The
problem is encountered when we use WindowsEyes to read the screen - the
project name is read, but not any associated decoration.

Problems also occur in the case of the markers in java editors (warnings,
errors, etc) - WindowsEyes just reads 'Image' and does not read the
associated hover-over text.

This problem occurs not only in our code, but also in base eclipse/JDT
(for example, check a project out from CVS - it will read the project name
but not the CVS repository information). Is there a way around this
problem?

Thanks
Paul
