Yes we can. Probably we may need an api change to collect the preference from
the user and control the logic accordingly at the lower level. Of course I
would want to address it separately in a different bug as this one is a vpat
bug and it is good to close out this early.
Thanks and regards,

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?
Thanks

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
