<Swing Dev> [12] JDK-7124293: [macosx] VoiceOver reads percentages rather than the actual values for sliders.

Hi Sergey, Yeah I saw that problem. It happens even before this fix.

It does not behave as a progress bar. We may need to add a change 
listener to continuously monitor for change and then trigger VO to read 
it out!!

Thanks and regards,
Shashi
