Hello!
I have a question: when I create some gadgets on a Window it is all OK But when I create the edit box, NVDA says only: "edit". And I cannot label the box. Is there a way to do it?

For some reason, screen readers a conscious of the way GUI widgets are placed. You need to place labels just above the text input box; that is, its x and y should be at most 10 coordinates away from the edit box, and your widgets should be placed in sequential order.

Ah I see. That's what I hate about all of this shit, and yeah, I know, every language has it. But I never have understood positioning properly.
Anyway, your post really helped me.
