Description Svata Dedic 2003-03-06 14:15:25 UTC
The edit pane should be given accessible name & description from the 
beaninfo/PropertyEnv. According to Chris' suggestion in issue #31313, 
there should be also a label w/ mnemonic.
Comment 1 _ tboudreau 2003-03-06 16:22:12 UTC
Please clarify - lines 41 through 43 set these properties, but 
the bundle keys for them are N/A.

Is the complaint that the a11y tool is saying they are not set
(the code to set them isn't working or something) or that the values 
are useless?
Comment 2 David Simonek 2003-03-20 17:37:09 UTC
Waiting for reporter to respond. moving target milestone to 4.0.
Comment 3 David Simonek 2003-03-20 18:06:59 UTC
Also ccing Chris, he's probably right person to tell us what exactly
a11y tool ouptu mean in this case. Thx Chris.
Comment 4 Chris Ledantec 2003-03-20 18:20:04 UTC
n/a should only be applied for components that do not need a
name/description. these are the exception to the rule so which out
seeing the output i'd guess the values need to be changed to something
useful.

generally speaking make the a11y name the same as the component name
or label and the description the same as the tool tip.

attach the report and exact steps for opening the dialog so i can look
at this specific case.
Comment 5 _ tboudreau 2003-09-09 04:10:16 UTC
I've improved the description, as part of another fix all custom
property editors will now get their accessible description and name
from the property they edit - surely that's adequate.
