There seems to be some interest in the add on from off the
list.
Could I also put the add on and the rapid translation into a
zip file and link it to a drop box account and to one of my web
pages for others to find and try out?
Will there be a translation from dutch into english for the add
on at a later date?
I did also check out the page where it is hosted but they are
not in a add on format for people to try out.
Last question is it to much of a hassell to submit it to the
add on community it just makes me wonder why some go up there
and others do not.
A rapid automatic translation with few corrections...
I think it gaves a good idea how it works...
I have already construct the add-on package...
The translation is below my name...

# Object Enhancer
* Author: Babbage B.V. <info@...>
Object Enhancer allows you to change how NVDA announces
objects on the screen using an intuitive interface. It can be
used to change the label of an object, but depending on how
you're using it, has functionality to change basically any
property of an object.
Changes to an object are saved in a definition.
A definition contains:
* Criteria that have to apply in order for the definition to
match
* Attribute changes that will be applied to every object that
matches the definition
* Optional relationships with other definitions. A definition
can inherrit criteria from other definitions
## Creating your own definitions
Object Enhancer has a graphical interface to make new
definitions and edit existing definitions.
To create a new definition for the current navigator object,
press NVDA + CONTROL + TAB. This opens the new Definition
dialog if no definition is found for the current object, and
the existing definition is processed if there is a definition
is to edit.
NVDA + Control + Shift + tab opens the main dialog box of the
add-on with which you can find out existing definitions and
edit existing definitions.
Please note that when you want to make a definition quickly,
you can do it best with NVDA + Control + Tab, because you can
automatically have certain properties of the object to take
over.
For example, when you press this shortcut when the current
navigator object is a list item, you can automatically add the
current name, role or location to the definition.

current name, role or location to the definition.
### The Edit New Definition / Definition dialog box consists
of the following items:
#### Definition name
A unique name for your definition that you use to recognize it
later, and to link it to a different definition if necessary.
#### Filter criteria:
These are the criteria to be used to apply the definition. You
can filter on attributes / properties of an object.
Press Add to add a new criteria.
You can choose from the list of relevant object attributes or
give up an attribute yourself.
For example, you can choose the WindowsControlID option from
the list of attributes, after which the input fields for
attribute and value are entered automatically.
For example, if you want to match an object with
IAccessibleRole = 10 (ROLE_SYSTEM_CLIENT), you can also do
this manually.
You can also edit the current filter criteria or add an extra
value to filter, when you want to match an object that, for
example, the value 15 or 16 has for WindowControllID.
#### Attribute changes
In the list of attribute changes you can specify which
characteristics of the object should be changed. In most cases
you probably want to change the name (name) or description
(description).
#### Inherit settings from definition / definition is
abstractSettings Overflows of definition / definition is
abstract
With this drop-down list and this check box you can set a
relationship between different definitions.
Imagine that you have to label multiple buttons in one
application.
All buttons have a magicbutton window class name.
You can make a definition with WindowClass = MagicButton and
the Definition check box is abstract, do not use it directly.
In the following definitions your settings can overflow from
the definition of MagicButton, so that the new definition will
behave as if windowClassName = MagicButton is specified as a
filter criterion.
#### Treat criteria for object location as absolute screen
coordinates
When this option is enabled, location criteria from the
criteria section are treated as all other attributes. This
means that if you define Locaton = (1, 2, 3, 4), any object
without this absolute location does not match.
However, if this option is disabled, this has a large effect
on object definitions with more than one location.
For more details we refer you to the English documentation.
#### Definition error handling
With this drop-down list you can decide what should happen if
an error occurs when evaluating this definition:
* If set to continuue, the error is ignored and the evaluation
continues
* If set to Break, the evaluation is demolished
* If set to Raise, a failing evaluation causes a traceback.
Do not apply this option unless you know what you do, eg
because you are a NVDA or Python developer.

Hi
I found an object enhancer addon, it
needs packaging, updating to python3, and some English
translation. Is there anyone on list who could do this?
This addon will let you customize objects just like you
can with jaws. The link for the addon is:
