Accessibility API

UNO Accessibility API

The UNO Accessibility API (UAA) defines a set of interfaces and services that are implemented by all UNO objects that belong to the GUI. Corresponding to the tree hierarchy of graphical user interfaces the UAA represents the GUI as a tree of accessible objects which can be queried by AT about properties like names, roles, geometry, and color.
