Description Shyam B CLA 2016-06-16 01:12:29 EDT 
Hi,

The toottip information given in Label Provider( JFace StyledCellLabelProvider ) provided by overriding the getToolTipText() method is not read out by JAWS ( screenreader ).
I am using the StyledCellLabelProvider ( the getToolTipText() is part of CellLabelProvider ) in the context of BreadcrumbViewer.
 
Tested with Mars, Jaws 17 on Windows 8.
org.eclipse.jface.viewers.StyledCellLabelProvider is the class that my label provider extends from.

Thanks and Regards,
Shyam

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
