ok, I am using this program on Linux as it isn't screen reader friendly anywhere else.
here's a couple of issues: 1. When importing from data sources, I cannot check or uncheck individual items 2. I cannot simply shift values down one channel (moving 3 to 2 , etc.).
I use Ubuntu 13 precise (LTS version) with all packages updated. I also use ORCA screen reader as I am blind. SO, any chance of changing this so it works a little more nicely?
btw, I am not the only blind ham around here that may have to use software to program a chinese radio (or even one of the others for that matter).. A lot of us (and there are quite a few thousand of us here in the US) would certainly appreciate it if the developer would address the accessibility issue on windows or OS X (as not many of us use Linux). Those of us blind hams who do use Linux would certainly appreciate a few small changes in the interface to make it a little more screen reader (using ORCA or emacspeak) friendly.
there is an FAQ here: http://empowermentzone.com/NonvisualDevelopmentFAQ.htm
there is an entry for python scripting there that would make it a lot easier to understand (and setup for accessible UI structures..
in fact, heres the FAQ in question:
/Quote What tools are recommended for developing with the Python language?
Install Python from http://python.org
Install the wxPython package for creating accessible GUIs from http://wxPython.org
For Windows development, install the Python for Windows extensions at http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/
Also install py2exe, a package for building stand-alone executables from http://py2exe.org
In Python, code indentation is syntactically required rather than stylistically optional. The EdSharp editor includes features that help screen reader users manage indentation efficiently, available at http://EmpowermentZone.com/edsetup.exe

please give this your best consideration.
