Accessible Objects

[This is preliminary documentation and subject to change.]

Applications support Active Accessibility by exposing their user interface (UI) elements to client applications. These UI elements are presented to clients (accessibility aids) in the form of "accessible objects."

This section provides an overview of the concepts behind accessible objects. The following topics are covered.

• Objects, Children, and Simple Elements
• Object and Child Identifiers
• Supported Interfaces
• Properties for Accessible Objects
• Methods for Accessible Objects
• Enumeration Properties
• Accessible Object Events and Hook Procedures
• Accessible Object Selection and Focus
• Support for Standard Objects
