Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I cannot use DUCE-GUI-windows.exe with screen readers NVDA JAWS and Narrator.
The GUI is built using the PySimpleGUI library and this library does not provide any accessibility support.
Therefore, it is impossible to use the programs designed with it with screen readers for blind users

Describe the solution you'd like
If possible, it is preferable to use PyQT or Wxpython to build the GUI
Because they are the most accessible support with screen readers

Describe alternatives you've considered
GUI design using pyqt5, pyqt6, or wxpython because only these desks provide good accessibility support with screen readers

Additional context

Hello,
I am sorry that the current GUI solution is causing inconvenience. I am looking into changing the GUI Framework for multiple reasons. Now with PySimpleGUI requires a key to use so, I will try and improve the GUI and with a different Framework

Thank you for addressing the GUI issues. Regarding your consideration of changing the GUI framework, you might find PyQt6 suitable for your needs. PyQt6 does not require any fees and provides robust support for screen readers. This framework could potentially offer the improvements you are looking for while maintaining accessibility features.
