1625953 - Support aria-controls and aria-flowto in OS X.

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Disability Access APIs, enhancement, P3)

Description

[Marco Zehe (:MarcoZ)]

This would allow users to press Ctrl+Option+j to jump between linked UI elements. From the Core-AAM spec:

Property: AXLinkedUIElements: pointers to accessible nodes matching IDREFs.

Comment 1

[Marco Zehe (:MarcoZ)]

aria-controls maps to the same property, so unifying title to support both these attributes.

Comment 2

[Eitan Isaacson [:eeejay]]

It looks like Chrome indeed exposes these as AXLinkedUIElements. But WebKit uses AXARIAControls for aria-controls

A small refactor to make all of the relations getting easier.

Comment 4

[Eitan Isaacson [:eeejay]]

Attachment: Bug 1625953 - P2: Introduce support for aria-controls and aria-flowto in mac. r?morgan!

This is via AXARIAControls and AXLinkedUIElements respectively.

Depends on D101084
