Welcome

Welcome to the Accessibility Software Project. Here is some information about the current state of the project.

• The latest release of the project was version 2.0 in June 2019
• The accessibility website is here: https://accessibilitysoftwarehub.github.io/
• The Tobii website is here to download eye-tracking software: https://gaming.tobii.com/getstarted/

State Manager:

The state manager is not very well commented but here is a quick overview of how it works:

1. A timer ticks every millisecond.
2. UpdateState will run checking the current system flag to see if anything has changed and update the current state.

• if a button has been pushed it will change the flag to actionToPerform
• If action has finished it will change to waiting state.

3. DoAction will then run. This will call the corresponding mouse click in the virtual mouse class.

Settings page:

The settings page is currently a mess. More details are here.

Other tips:

• Git pull before you do anything.
• ‘Git add .’ instead of ‘Git add *’
• Default settings are saved in program.cs
• If you are changing default settings then you need to delete the file with your saved settings before they will take effect.
• Use OBS to screen capture. A lot of the other ones would stop responsiveness with the eye tracker.
• We are currently using the word 'TESTINGVARIABLE' in comments to indicate where variables have been hardcoded for testing and need to be deleted later.
