The stack page objects were not properly integrated
in the accessible tree - they were appearing as parent
of the pages when navigating up, but not as children
of the stack when navigating down.
The ARIA spec determines the name and description of accessible elements
in a more complex way that simply mapping to a single property; instead,
it will chain up multiple definitions (if it finds them). For instance,
let's assume we have a button that saves a file selected from a file
selection widget; the widgets have the following attributes:
- the file selection widget has a "label" attribute set to the
selected file, e.g. "Final paper.pdf"
- the "download" button has a "label" attribute set to the
"Download" string
- the "download" button has a "labelled-by" attribute set to
reference the file selection widget
The ARIA spec says that the accessible name of the "Download" button
should be computed as "Download Final paper.pdf".
The algorithm defined in section 4.3 of the WAI-ARIA specification
applies to both accessible names (using the "label" and "labelled-by"
attributes), and to accessible descriptions (using the "description" and
"described-by" attributes).
Our Text implementation requires that we have
a GtkEditable with a delegate that is a GtkText
widget.
This change make the Text implementation work for
the custom widget in the tagged entry demo.
Implement the non-questionable parts of the Component interface
for accessibles which are widgets.
This does not include:
- global coordinates
- setters
- scrolling
- alpha, layers, zorder, and the like
We only want to show relevant, local actions for
widgets, but _gtk_widget_get_action_muxer() will
return the muxer of a parent widget (all the way
up to the toplevel), if the widget does not have
any actions of its own. To detect this situation,
compare what _gtk_widget_get_action_muxer() returns
for the parent widget, and act accordingly.
The Selection interface is defined in terms of child
positions, so we need to always translate from that
to model positions if we want to use the selection
model apis.
This implementation works for both GtkListView and
GtkGridView, and by extension, also for GtkColumnView
and GtkDropDown, since those just use a list view
internally.
This is a bit different from the way things were done
in GTK 3 - we follow what was done for GtkStackSwitcher,
and make the tab bar carry the GTK_ACCESSIBLE_TAB_LIST
role, and implement Selection there.
This requires some cleanup to remove assumptions
about accessibles being widgets in the backend,
and some code to navigate the tree with these
extra objects in between widgets.
The accessibles for stack pages have the role
GTK_ACCESSIBLE_ROLE_TAB_PANEL. This is the first
step towards implementing the tabs patterns
as described in the aria authoring guidelines
for GtkStack.
Non need to announce the same things for every context
we create, and the path is not really that interesting.
without knowing what it belongs to. I would suggest to
make it visible in the inspector instead, so you can
look it up for the widgets you are interested in.
We use to set the the 'password text' role for entries with
visibility = FALSE. Nowadays, we have a separate class for
password entries, so fix up the role mapping based on that.
Make text change notification work for editables, by connecting
to the ::insert-text and ::delete-text signals on the wrapped
GtkText widget, and for GtkTextView by connecting to the
corresponding GtkTextBuffer signals.
This code is more or less directly copied from GtkTextViewAccessible
and GtkEntryAccessible in GTK 3.
We are determining editable state based on the
accessible role (although we could make it platform
state now), so cover all the roles that we use for
entry wrappers.
Add an enum for 'platform changes' to the at context
change notification mechanism. This will let us pass
along things that ARIA considers 'platform state' such
as focus or editability. The difference between the
platform state and other ARIA states is that we don't
keep the platform state separately in the at context
- backends are expected to just query the widgets.
This is just about avoiding notify listeners for
change notification.
We can use the read-only property, together with the
accessible role, to determine whether to set editable
and read-only states for at-spi. This lets us avoid
directly poking at the widgets.
ATs look at not just the implemented interfaces, but
also the states to decide what to do. It turns out that
the EditableText interface is only used by accerciser
if the editable state is set. So set it.
It is error prone to keep the same conditions in sync
in two places. Instead, just assemble the list of interfaces
as we register objects, and use when GetInterfaces is called.
Apply the Value implementation to the widgets where
we had one in GTK 3: GtkLevelBar, GtkRange, GtkScaleButton,
GtkSpinButton, GtkPaned, GtkProgressBar. To make these
work, the widgets need to set the accessible value properties.
There is some open question here whether the interface
should be implemented on the outer or the inner widget
of the entry-text pairs. For now, our hand is forced,
since only GtkText provides access to the layout that
we need for implementing many of the interface methods.
This is a not-quite-complete implementation of the
Text interface for GtkLabel. The missing parts are
anything around extents and positions, as well as
the ScrollSubstring apis.
This translates relations as far as the match.
I'm not sure yet what we can do about the fact that
atspi expects relations to be bidirectional (ie have
label-for *and* labelled-by) while aria has only one
direction.
It turns out that accerciser depends on this undocumented
method that is not in the xml at all, otherwise interface
sections in the accerciser ui never get enabled.
