I haven't been totally following this thread, but.... My 15 yo son has low
vision. It has come on very recently (last 6 months), He is 20/200
corrected. We have discovered the zoom feature on the old version of Mac
OSx... he prefers it much more than enlarging text. We have played with
some of the accessibility features on the the PC and they don't work for
him. He has his own pc laptop and and hasn't been on it in months, he
prefers to use my mac after I go to bed. The left right scroll and design
in general becomes irrelevant in these situations. He wants to do what
everyone else does and doesn't really care about scrolling to do it.
His issues have affected how I feel as a developer. It really does boil
down to usability.
We are going to get some more testing and in depth help the 25th of this
month (for any who are wondering). I am sure I will learn about all the
things they have to offer him beyond zooming on a mac but for now this is
working for us.
-------------------------------------
More important than anything we can discuss here, I wish your son well and
pray that his vision problems are managed.
