895000 - New unlabelled buttons can be accessibility focused on awesomebar

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Max Li [:maxli]]

As of the July 17 Nightly build, there's (at least) a couple of unlabelled buttons that can be focused using Talkback. One of these appears to be the Reader mode button (which was previously properly labelled); I don't know what the other one is. These buttons can be focused even when they aren't visible.

Seems to have been regressed by bug 734877.

Bug 895056 fixed that you could focus invisible elements. All that is needed here is setting the content description. So I'm stealing this bug.

Could you move this line of code into your new "if/else" block?

This looks like the right fix, but I want to consolidate all of this code into one place so we don't have to update three all the time.

Would you mind consolidating this stuff a bit into a helper function. i.e. something like:

private void setActionForView(View view, Pageaction pageaction) {
  if (pageaction == null) {
    // hide the view, remove its description, icon, and tag
    return;
  }
  // show the view,
  // add a description
  // and an icon
  // set the pageAction.id as a tag on the view
}

I'd even be fine if we had a special page action for the overflow button if you wanted too (maybe not stored in our normal list. So this became

if (size > max) {
  pageaction = overflowAction;
}
setActionForView(v, pageaction);

but we can do that in a separate bug if you're uncomfortable with it here.

lets make this entity more descriptive. page_action_dropmarker_description?

I'll leave this to a separate bug.
