Screenreader problem with GenBitmapTextButton

Hi,

I'm currently working on improving accessibility of our application for blind users. One of the things on my list is to make the screen reader I am using read a certain text when I select a button by going over it using the tab key.

As it is now, the reader will read certain input fields and labels .. but whenever it hits a (bmp) button, it stays quiet - which is kind of unacceptable.

The rest of the application makes use of "GenBitmapTextButton", where some buttons DO have a label (when there is enough space for that) and some buttons DONT have labels (when there is lack of space).

Now for the problem: the screen reader only reads the button's LABEL, and since there isn't a label attached to all of the buttons, the reader doesn't read all of them.

This problem/question became a lot longer than I intented, I hope it is still clear

Does anyone know any way I could solve this problem?

Alexion
