Hello there,
I'm new to using FSFO Pro. I happen to be a blind pilot, relying on a screen reader (along with a bunch of other software) for the enjoyment of this wonderful hobby we call flight simulation. There's just one quibble I've seen with FSFO Pro. Well, two actually.
1) The settings screen (accessible with the CFG button) doesn't read all that well with screen readers. If you navigate through the interface with the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, all of the controls are not properly labeled, and some have no label at all. This is primarily an issue with the edit boxes and some of the combo boxes. Programming tip: You can set the accName and/or accDescription properties on each control, and this will give those of us using screen readers useful information.
2) All of the buttons that change color to indicate their state aren't that useful for a blind person. This would work better if they were classed as regular checkboxes; you can still change the background or foreground color via the checkedChanged event that is associated with each checkbox control.
Just my thoughts; all in all, an amazing program. Keep up the great work.
