---++ Known accessibility issues

The following is a list of known accessibility issues in the current release (1.2.3):

   * Tabwidgets dont speak the Tabtitle. Workaround: Use the Actions menu
   * Messageboxes dont speak their content.

---++ Screenshots
some screenshot of RockboxUtility 1.3.0. RockboxUtility looks similar on all platforms due to the used toolkit. The appearance follows the settings of your operating system. *Note*: Theming is done by Qt using plugins, which has limitations with statically linked binaries. The binaries provided on this page are statically linked for your convenience, this means that when using a theme that is not part of Qt it won't get loaded and might result in a different look than your desktop. This issue usually only appears on Linux.
