Hello devs,
I want to report that clicking some of the options such as sharing to Twitter, Buffer, etc, does nothing when clicked upon using a scree-reader; in this case, Voiceover on OS X.
As a dedicated Vienna fan, I'd like to take advantage of these functions, but no noticeable action results from clicking the buttons (near the toolbar), nor clicking sharing options under the Article menu.
I'd appreciate any helpful response.
Thank you.

Re: Accessibility issues in Vienna 2.6
You are probably using the unified layout (also nicknamed "river of flow layout").
This layout does not allow selecting a single article, so buttons aren't able to be informed of the URL they should deal with.
Currently, you have to open the article on a separate tab, then switch to this tab to use these buttons.
I am myself a fan of unified layout, but the other layouts have an edge here.
I am interested on hearing opinions about the best way to change the user interface, in order to allow selecting a single article, when unified layout is chosen.

Yes, I am using this layout…
However, I am able to use the context menu when sorting through my articles (with Control+Option+Shift+M) to bring up options such as "Open Article Pages", "Open Subscription" "Delete Article",, "Mark As Read", etc.
I'm curious if a "Share with…" option could also be added, which would Obviously allow for targeting of that specific article.
Thanks.
