[Blindmath] Stata

[Pranav Lal]

Hi,

Ah, that sounds like a custom control. Try the following with jaws.
1. Move the jaws cursor to the slider.
2. Hit jaws key + 7 to invoke the control reclassification dialog.
3. The name of the existing control will be shown. If it has the word
slider in it, then try to reclassify the control as a slider which may
allow you  to change it.
