        <p class="MsoNormal">The primary reason the WinForms designer
          isn\u2019t accessible is because everything is set as an offscreen
          object. Since everything is set as offscreen,
          screenreaders/braille displays can\u2019t find it anywhere, or are
          told not to display it. From what I understand, Microsoft
          doesn\u2019t plan on fixing it. Your best bet is to use WPF. It\u2019s
          more accessible and easier to use.<o:p></o:p></p>

        <p>Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
        <p>I was trying to put together a quick POC in c# using
          winforms.<o:p></o:p></p>
        <p>When I open the main window (MainWindow.cs) to drop into the
          designer with JAWS and NVDA (using JAWS 2025.2504.89), I hear
          "Stub Description." I can still get to the toolbox to choose
          items and can select them, but the focus isn't read and the
          whole design experience is drastically different. Has anyone
          ran into this, and is there a setting or something that needs
          to be enabled?<o:p></o:p></p>
        <p>Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p>
