Good find Shashi. Now that we know how to make the VO read out only values, is it worthwhile to explore an option to choose between values and percentages?

Hi All, Please review a fix for the vpat bug. Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-7124293 Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~sveerabhadra/7124293/webrev.00/ The issue was that the slider used to voice out the percentages over the assistive technologies instead of the actual values. Percentages are not useful when setting the value for a slider thro' voice over. This fix fixes that problem and it voices out the value instead of the percentages. The fix is to send out only the current value instead of current value, min and max range values. This forces the platform to voice out only the value instead of the percentages. Thanks and regards, Shashi
