A bit hacky: we skip parsing values that have a reference or
reference-list type, but we do not error out. Instead, we return a NULL
value, which we catch in the GtkBuildable interface implementation to
get the actual object, and construct a reference list value.
There's still some ickyness around the value type that can only be
solved by having an attribute and role taxonomy.
Accessible attributes are not GObject properties. This means that we
need a custom parser for setting attributes in our UI description files.
The new section is defined as a sub-tree with the `<accessibility>`
element at its root, and elements for each type of accessible
attributes, i.e. properties, relations, and states:
```xml
<object class="..." id="...">
<accessibility>
<property name="label">The accessible label</property>
<state name="pressed">false</state>
<relation name="labelled-by">label1</relation>
</accessibility>
</object>
```
The name of the attribute is the enumeration value; the value is defined
by the WAI-ARIA specification.
Show the object path of the object on the a11y bus,
this is can be useful information. While we are here,
make sure that the Inspector does not throw criticals
when used with GTK_NO_A11Y=1.
There were several places where we were confusing
GList and GSList and list->data and list->next, causing
a crash in the accessible name computation for buttons
with mnemonic labels.
Anybody who keeps their own CSS nodes around or wants to order CSS nodes
different from widgets will from now on have to do it manually all the
time.
This is outdated behavior, nobody should be doing either of those two
things.
Also, the correct case is much more common, and not doing it
automatically was causing bugs.
Fixes#3280
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.
Instead of falling back to the role nick for both,
fall back to the class name for the name, and to
the empty string for the description. This makes
labels show up in Accerciser the same way they
did in GTK 3, and seems more useful to me than
the alternative.
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
Make right-aligned content work in resized columns.
There is currently no way to make a title right-aligned,
but we can still make it work correctly. This is a follow
up to 7eb0ae39c5.
