Abstract

ISO/IEC TR 13066:2012 provides an overview to the structure and terminology of the IAccessible2 accessibility API.

It provides:

a description of the overall architecture and terminology of the API;

further introductory explanations regarding the content and use of the API beyond those found in Annex A of ISO/IEC 13066-1;

an overview of the main properties, including:

of user interface elements,

of how to get and set focus,

of communication mechanisms in the API;

a discussion of design considerations for the API (e.g. pointers to external sources of information on accessibility guidance related to using the API);

information on extending the API (and where this is appropriate);

an introduction to the programming interface of the API (including pointers to external sources of information).

It provides this information as an introduction to the IAccessible2 API to assist:

IT system level developers who create custom controls and/or interface to them;
