You can certainly try this. Since we can't duplicate it it is
difficult to know what is causing the problem.

Ok. What should I do? Clean install? I am using the old Elloquence.
I really don't like the new one so I guess clean install is the best
thing to try?

We are not able to duplicate the combobox problem as long as you use
alt-down arrow.

I find some of the problems I am having such as the combo box
problem bordering on show stoppers especially for certain boxes but
I agree that taking the time to fix it properly is the best way.

Subject: Re: WE 7 and browse mode
Speculation is such an interesting thing. We never said we were
going to stop using MSAA. We are doing a rewrite because browse
mode is over 10 years old and when it was created we didn't
consider the need for multiple simultaneous buffers. The issues
with AJAX and ARIA didn't exist. WE scripting which requires a lot
more from browse mode didn't exist. Browse mode was created when
we supported 9X which made it more complex code wise than it needed
to be. From our perspective there is only one browse mode related
problem that is a show stopper and that is a lockup where WE hangs
under certain timing conditions when browse mode has been told to
turn off and then immediately turn back on. We, with the new
lockup code that I said we would work on post 7.0, are currently
working to understand this issue enough to hopefully resolve
it. The other issues, honestly, are anoyances that don't prevent
people from functioning with browse mode and we are not just going
to just knee jerk react and rush out something to silence people on
this list. We are going to rework our browse mode code base and do
it correctly which is a much better long term strategy.

I understand the below:
The only problem I have it back when browse mode was developed we
were told that msaa was great.
Other screen reader companies did there own proprietary stuff for
this and gw was working with microsoft with msaa to do it right.
Browse mode took a while etc.
It's never worked correctly ... why the complete rewrite?
When will this be done?
I think most of us use the applications taht use browse mode the
most of all apps.
We need to truly get this fixed as soon as we can and certainly
beofre we start adding more features.
Thanks so listening to my views.

We only stated that browse mode was going to be redone post
7.0. This is a major project and won't be released in any service
pack or minor update.

Did I understand it correctly from the GW staff that they would
be coming out with a WE 7 service pack soon after the release of
WE 7 which would fix the browse mode problems that seemed to get
worse with the new release?
