TitleWindowAccImpl is the accessibility implementation class for spark.components.TitleWindow.

When a Spark TitleWindow is created, the accessibilityImplementation property of a special child Sprite is set to an instance of this class. The Flash Player then uses this class to allow MSAA clients such as screen readers to see this component. See the mx.accessibility.AccImpl and flash.accessibility.AccessibilityImplementation classes for background information about accessibility implementation classes and MSAA.

Children

A TitleWindow has no MSAA children. All children of the actual TitleWindow are siblings of the TitleWindow in the FlashPlayer's MSAA tree, because Flash Player does not support objects with accessibility implementations having children with their own accessibility implementations.

The TitleWindowAcImpl is set as the accessibilityImplementation of the titleDisplay because setting it on the TitleWindow itself would not allow the TitleWindows's children to be exposed in MSAA. Because of this an invisible rectangle is drawn in the titleDisplay making it the same size as the TitleWindow as a whole so that the MSAA Location is the bounding rectangle of the entire TitleWindow. Screen readers like JAWS rely on the MSAA Location to announce whether some component is in the TitleWindow since the MSAA structure is flat.

Role

The MSAA Role of a TitleWindow is ROLE_SYSTEM_PANE.

Name

The MSAA Name of a TitleWindow is, by default, the title that it displays. To override this behavior, set the TitleWindow's accessibilityName property.

When the Name changes, a TitleWindow dispatches the MSAA event EVENT_OBJECT_NAMECHANGE.

Description

The MSAA Description of a TitleWindow is, by default, the empty string, but you can set the TitleWindows's accessibilityDescription property.

State

The MSAA State of a TitleWindow is always STATE_SYSTEM_MOVEABLE.

Since the State does not change, a TitleWindow does not dispatch the MSAA event EVENT_OBJECT_STATECHANGE.

Value

The MSAA Value of a TitleWindow is always the empty string.

Location

The MSAA Location of a TitleWindow is its bounding rectangle.

Default Action

A TitleWindow does not have an MSAA DefaultAction.

Focus

A TitleWindow does not accept focus.

Selection

A TitleWindow does not support selection in the MSAA sense.

Other

A TitleWindow also dispatches the following MSAA events:

EVENT_OBJECT_CREATE, when it is created
EVENT_OBJECT_DESTROY, when it is closed
EVENT_OBJECT_LOCATIONCHANGE, when it is moved

Constructor

public function TitleWindowAccImpl(master:UIComponent)

Language Version:

Constructor.

Parameters

master:UIComponent — The UIComponent instance that this AccImpl instance is making accessible.

Method Detail

enableAccessibility

()

method

public static function enableAccessibility():void

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Product Version:

Flex 3

Runtime Versions:

Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Enables accessibility in the TitleWindow class.

This method is called by application startup code that is autogenerated by the MXML compiler. Afterwards, when instances of TitleWindow are initialized, the accessibilityImplementation property of a special first child Sprite will be set to an instance of this class. If the TitleWindowAccImpl were attached to the TitleWindow itself the accessibility implementations of the TitleWindow's children would be ignored.
