Description Duong Nguyen CLA 2008-05-22 16:53:39 EDT 
Run the ControlExample and chose the Slider tab.
Hover over the Slider and VoiceOver will say "Horizontal Scrollbar"
Change the style to SWT.VERTICAL.
Hover over the Slider and VoiceOver will continue to say "Horizontal Scrollbar".
Select another tab (eg. Shell) and go back to the Slider tab.
Now, hover over the slider and it will say "Vertical Scrollbar".
Select the SWT.HORIZONTAL style and hover over the Slider, it will say "Vertical Scrollbar"

This is working in Cocoa, though when the control switches from vertical to horizontal or vice-versa VoiceOver doesn't immediately pick up that the control was removed and replaced with a new one. Probably not worth fixing in Carbon at this point.

Carbon is dead for 3.7, and it works in Cocoa, so WONTFIX.
