If you set the Text widget to be read-only, it *should* have the same 
color as the background as far as I know.

[wtp-dev] Screen readers and description labels vs. text areas






I am doing some clean up on UI. We have heard rumors that descriptions 
that should be picked up by alternative screen readers should be contained 
in a text area. Unfortunately, this sets up a background problem where the 
description gets a different background than the rest of the composite.
 
Do text areas need to be used for alternative screen readers to find 
descriptions?
 
I would like to fix this problem by using a simple Label instead. Will 
that be picked up by alternative screen readers?
 
Thanks,
David Gorton
