Description Cherie Revells CLA 2006-05-11 17:20:48 EDT 
The Page Setup Dialog has fields that are not properly read by a screen reader.

To reproduce:
- Start MS Narrator found on Windows under Start > Programs > Accessories >
Accessibility > Narrator.
- Open a GMF diagram.
- Select File > Page Setup.
- Select "Use Diagram Settings".
- Select one of the amount fields for page size or margin size.
ISSUE #1 -- The Narrator does not say the units after the size.  For example, it says "Width editable text 8.5", but it does not say "inches" or "mm".
Comment 1 Cherie Revells CLA 2006-05-16 09:54:32 EDT 
This Page Setup UI also shows in the diagram preferences.  There are a couple more pages in the diagram preferences that the screen reader has issues with:
- The Rulers & Grid section also has the units (mm & inches) on the right.
- On the Appearance page the screen reader does not read any text with the color buttons.

Patch for bug 141449 and 141794

This patch puts unit labels (found in the Page setup dialog and the Rulers and Grid dialog) to the right of their fields so that narrators can properly read them, as narrators commonly associate text fields with the labels that are on the left of them.

It also lays out the controls again if the units are changed so that label truncation does not occur (see bug #141794).
