I wonder if a list similar to this exists for jaws or window-eyes or other 
high dollar screen readers.  It would be interesting to compare against 
nvda and system access for accessibility purposes.

most of the >program uses standard controls except for the
tree-view-lists. These appear in the settings
where you still can use them just by looking at
the options under each one. There is another
place where not being able to read the
tree-view-lists is a problem. It is when you try
to     perform a system scan. There are ten options.

edit controls use the display model to get the text, this means we
lose text selection announcement, say all,
as well as being limited to screen text.
These use it, because there's no specific accessibility support in that
control and NVDA can't do anything else with it.

mostly accessible without java bridge
version needed 4.0.0
if you uninstall there are a few problems this seems
to be an nvda problem as if you uninstall using any other screen reader

no need to check the java bridge option
run the installer as administrator,
then you must run the  program for the first time as administrator then the
program
will work
Joomla is a web-based system used to create web-pages. The editor is used to
