GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 441428
[a11y] Calendar month view not accessible.

See also Orca bug #400711 which is blocked by this bug. The Evolution Calendar month view does not contain useful accessible information. The Calendar View table entries have accessible names like "Monday the 1 week", "Tuesday the 1 week" and so on. What would be a lot more useful to AT like Orca is to have "Monday 30 April", "Tuesday 1 May" and so on. For the Evolution Calendar Day view I scripted a Gross Hack in Orca to get around this: http://blogs.sun.com/richb/entry/reverse_engineering_accessibility But it's not so easy for the month view. Better to fix the real problem.

GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/Community/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new bug report ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
