Hello,

I'm a low vision user and to access a computer I depend on a screen magnifier called ZoomText. The key feature of screen magnifiers is their focus. In general they track MSAA events to focus on the text cursor position while typing. If a screen magnifier can't focus on that position then the text cursor leaves the magnified view all the time. So you have to move the magnifier manually, which is quite tiring.

This is what happens when I use the UltraVNC Viewer. To overcome this issue the viewer should send events to MSAA, which a screen magnifier or other AT software can pick up.

Kind regards,
Bas Cancrinus
