Description Siva Velusamy CLA 2014-06-11 13:52:44 EDT 
When a row in SWT Table is selected,

On Linux and Windows: the screen reader is able to read out the contents of the row.

On Mac, Voiceover only reads out the first column.

This happened to be a swt table with the first column being a checkbox, so it would just say "unchecked".

Which version of Mac OS X are you using? Can you attach a snippet of code that can be used to re-create the problem?
Comment 2 Lakshmi P Shanmugam CLA 2014-06-23 08:20:35 EDT 
I tried this with the SWT control example. The problem seems to be that when SWT table has the checkbox column, the last column is not being read.

The root cause is same for Checkbox Table and Tree. Will track this as a single bug - Bug 434712
