What's New in Accessibility

GNOME 3.2 是現今最美觀的無障礙桌面,並且強調穩定及對每個人的易用性。

Until GNOME 3.2, assistive technology users have faced an unfortunate dilemma: It was not possible to dynamically activate accessibility support. Thanks to improvements to AT-SPI2, applications now have a cross-desktop way to determine if accessibility support is enabled and a way to enable it. GNOME is first to implement this, so more work needs to be done to really work across desktops.

Other improvements:

  • 對於需要螢幕鍵盤的使用者,我們內建了全新的鍵盤。

  • 使用鍵盤操作概覽模式比以往更加容易。除了可以完全以鍵盤瀏覽,螢幕閱讀器 Orca 的使用者在使用時會體驗到更穩定,精確的表現。

  • Orca’s migration to introspection has made GNOME’s screen reader noticeably snappier. And now that the ATK bridge only listens for signals when assistive technologies are being used, enabling accessibility support in GNOME should no longer result in a significant performance degradation.

  • 無障礙服務介面 AT-SPI2 已經大大的穩定下來:程式錯誤、缺少記憶體和其他多種程式臭蟲都已經修正。

  • GNOME's Accessibility Implementation Library Gail has been completely merged into GTK+, bringing GNOME yet another step closer to accessibility that's built in, not bolted on.
