I have some insensitive widgets in my application, which means that it’s not possible to select them using the keyboard while they are insensitive. Is there a way of allowing to select them, in order to make them “visible” to screen readers, while keeping them insensitive?
EDIT: I already tried adding “focusable” to the .ui file, but no dice.
If a widget is not sensitive, then it cannot receive focus; and if it cannot receive focus, then it cannot be accessible.
Remember that a screen reader allows non-sighted people to perceive your UI exactly like a sighted person would; it’s not a mechanism to work around your own UI. If a widget is not meant to be interacted with, then both sighted and non-sighted users won’t be able to interact with it.
I recommend rethinking your UI.
