All known accessibility problems fixed in the latest Zoom beta

Filed under: Zoom — James Jolley @ 3:47 pm

The latest beta of Zoom fixes all the accessibility issues blind users had been having when using it with VoiceOver. Here is the list of what is fixed:
1. The status line in ZCode games is now reading correctly.
2. Menus in Glulxe games are now accessible.
3. All the game’s output is now seen by VoiceOver as text areas rather than scroll areas, making navigation easier.

The latest beta can be downloaded here.
