Hi Rick,
Yes, I think you are seeing what always happens in the studio messaging.
Remember that there is always that dynamic screen that displays everything for
a sighted user.
You get errors, hints and all that stuff that gets placed in the
appropriate column on the screen.
Yes, Windoweyes seems to pick up things all the time a sighted user never
sees. I have had a sighted friend over on many occasions to fix things and
Windoweyes is saying stuff that is not even on the screen.
As I had mentioned to you privately, MSAA some times does not work, but as
Chip has said, filtering out that move to that screen only, or others in the
future, will at least quiet down the screen.
Hmmm, this sounds like a good app update for the studio, keep on plugging
away on it.

Subject: RE: Visual Studio Project: Desktop, Overlap and Accessible Object
Before messing with msaa Rick, since it's the Error window you are concerned
with at the moment, leave your logger as it is, and do something which
causes the error window to steal focus as it's been doing, and then log the
info for the .over of the error window.
Also, this will tell you if the error window really is getting focus like
you think. If it is, what you will ultimately want to do is to start
learning about filtering MSAA events, so that you can filter this constant
change of focus (if that's what is happening), so window-eyes doesn't see
it, and then next, you'll need to allow your apps msaa events to still see
the focus change to the error window so that you can correct it (put the
focus back to where it belongs).
I'm not really convinced focus is staying on the error window, since a
sighted person could not keep typing into their code if the focus kept
moving away from the code window, so you probably won't need to correct it;
but it could be popping over there for a quick millisecond, in which case,
you would just want to stop window-eyes from noticing that.
Hth,
Chip

Subject: Visual Studio Project: Desktop, Overlap and Accessible Object
Hi: Connecting to the Desktop did get things at least firing.
The Overlap Window OnChildFocus first hits the Desktop, then the Visual
Studio Start Page and again the Desktop.
I pull a a Accessible object when the Visual Studio window is the overlap
for future analysis.
Now I will see if MSAA offers me anything using the Accessible Object? Does
that sound right?
Here is the output for the 3 OnChildFocus events and below it my code:
Now I could use some comments on what to try next to ensure things are
working...
This has 2 sections so you can jump to a heading by find on "Section:
It is really quite short but thought I would set up in case gets longer in
the future.
