Hi Pranav,

I understand your point regarding certain sliders. I am aware that
some of these can be adjusted, such as the volume adjustment in
Windows. However, this particular slider bar is different. I did not
even realize that the scrollback buffer was part of this preferences
dialog box until I switched to the JAWS cursor (when using JAWS), and
I also tried object navigation in NVDA. In other words, simply tabbing
between the controls did not even identify this is an option. I even
tried using JAWS key + 8 (left mouse click) while in the JAWS cursor
mode, but this would not allow me to enter into any kind of field that
would edit the scrollback buffer setting.
