Description bascan 2005-03-14 13:28:22 UTC 
With OO v1.1.4 the ZoomText v8.12.2.2 magnifier could track UI events and the
text cursor successfully through the Java AccessBridge v1.2. After uninstalling
OO v1.1.4 and installing OO v1.9.79 ZT doesn't track the entire OO UI.

As an alternative, while running OO Writer and ZT, I tried CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+D to
find a new caret definition for ZT. Then ZT reported that a new definition was
found and prompted to save it. However, that didn't make a difference.

FYI.. ZoomText -> http://www.aisquared.com/index.htm

I don't have the software, so I couldn't confirm.

RU -> ES: Thanks for taking this.
Comment 3 bascan 2005-03-22 12:29:06 UTC 
I didn't know that AT support could be activated in Options > Accessibility.
After doing so ZT 8.1 was able to track the UI events and the text cursor in all
OO apps except for Calc. When I start Calc and ZT 8.1 is active than my system
becomes instantly unstable and sluggish. I only managed to reach a stable state
after a system log-off/on.

Please note that I also experienced this behaviour with OO v1.1.4 Calc. My OS is
WinXP-SP2.
Comment 4 bascan 2005-04-05 12:05:33 UTC 
Ai Squared support confirmed my problems with ZT and OO Calc. According to the
support person this issue is caused by the Java AccessBridge v1.2. A downgrade
of JAB to v1.1 should solve my problems. I'll post back on this asap.
Comment 5 bascan 2005-04-06 10:21:26 UTC 
I upgraded my JAB to v2.0_Beta_1 and my problems with ZT and OO Calc disappeared!
Comment 6 thackert 2005-05-15 10:58:50 UTC 
@bascan: I have seen that an upgrade to JAB2.0 has solved your problem .... ;) Could you 
close this issue then, please?
