`Action` should be implemented by instances of `Object` classes
with which the user can interact directly, i.e. buttons,
checkboxes, scrollbars, e.g. components which are not "passive"
providers of UI information.
Exceptions: when the user interaction is already covered by another
appropriate interface such as `EditableText` (insert/delete text,
etc.) or `Value` (set value) then these actions should not be
exposed by `Action` as well.
Though most UI interactions on components should be invocable via
keyboard as well as mouse, there will generally be a close mapping
between "mouse actions" that are possible on a component and the
AtkActions. Where mouse and keyboard actions are redundant in
effect, `Action` should expose only one action rather than
exposing redundant actions if possible. By convention we have been
using "mouse centric" terminology for `Action` names.
# Implements
[`AtkActionExt`](trait.AtkActionExt.html)
Trait containing all `Action` methods.
# Implementors
[`Action`](struct.Action.html), [`Hyperlink`](struct.Hyperlink.html), [`NoOpObject`](struct.NoOpObject.html)
Perform the specified action on the object.
## `i`
the action index corresponding to the action to be performed
# Returns
`true` if success, `false` otherwise
Returns a description of the specified action of the object.
## `i`
the action index corresponding to the action to be performed
# Returns
a description string, or `None` if `self` does
not implement this interface.
Gets the keybinding which can be used to activate this action, if one
exists. The string returned should contain localized, human-readable,
key sequences as they would appear when displayed on screen. It must
be in the format "mnemonic;sequence;shortcut".
- The mnemonic key activates the object if it is presently enabled onscreen.
This typically corresponds to the underlined letter within the widget.
Example: "n" in a traditional "New..." menu item or the "a" in "Apply" for
a button.
- The sequence is the full list of keys which invoke the action even if the
relevant element is not currently shown on screen. For instance, for a menu
item the sequence is the keybindings used to open the parent menus before
invoking. The sequence string is colon-delimited. Example: "Alt+F:N" in a
traditional "New..." menu item.
- The shortcut, if it exists, will invoke the same action without showing
the component or its enclosing menus or dialogs. Example: "Ctrl+N" in a
traditional "New..." menu item.
Example: For a traditional "New..." menu item, the expected return value
would be: "N;Alt+F:N;Ctrl+N" for the English locale and "N;Alt+D:N;Strg+N"
for the German locale. If, hypothetically, this menu item lacked a mnemonic,
it would be represented by ";;Ctrl+N" and ";;Strg+N" respectively.
## `i`
the action index corresponding to the action to be performed
# Returns
the keybinding which can be used to activate
this action, or `None` if there is no keybinding for this action.
Returns the localized name of the specified action of the object.
## `i`
the action index corresponding to the action to be performed
# Returns
a name string, or `None` if `self` does not
implement this interface.
Gets the number of accessible actions available on the object.
If there are more than one, the first one is considered the
"default" action of the object.
# Returns
a the number of actions, or 0 if `self` does not
implement this interface.
Returns a non-localized string naming the specified action of the
object. This name is generally not descriptive of the end result
of the action, but instead names the 'interaction type' which the
object supports. By convention, the above strings should be used to
represent the actions which correspond to the common point-and-click
interaction techniques of the same name: i.e.
"click", "press", "release", "drag", "drop", "popup", etc.
The "popup" action should be used to pop up a context menu for the
object, if one exists.
For technical reasons, some toolkits cannot guarantee that the
reported action is actually 'bound' to a nontrivial user event;
i.e. the result of some actions via `Action::do_action` may be
NIL.
## `i`
the action index corresponding to the action to be performed
# Returns
a name string, or `None` if `self` does not
implement this interface.
Sets a description of the specified action of the object.
## `i`
the action index corresponding to the action to be performed
## `desc`
the description to be assigned to this action
# Returns
a gboolean representing if the description was successfully set;
`Component` should be implemented by most if not all UI elements
with an actual on-screen presence, i.e. components which can be
said to have a screen-coordinate bounding box. Virtually all
widgets will need to have `Component` implementations provided
for their corresponding `Object` class. In short, only UI
elements which are *not* GUI elements will omit this ATK interface.
A possible exception might be textual information with a
transparent background, in which case text glyph bounding box
information is provided by `Text`.

The AtkDocument interface should be supported by any object whose
content is a representation or view of a document. The AtkDocument
interface should appear on the toplevel container for the document
content; however AtkDocument instances may be nested (i.e. an
AtkDocument may be a descendant of another AtkDocument) in those
cases where one document contains "embedded content" which can
reasonably be considered a document in its own right.

Gets a `gpointer` that points to an instance of the DOM. It is
up to the caller to check atk_document_get_type to determine
how to cast this pointer.

`true` if `attribute_value` is successfully associated
with `attribute_name` for this `self`, and `false` if if the
document does not allow the attribute to be modified
The 'load-complete' signal is emitted when a pending load of
a static document has completed. This signal is to be
expected by ATK clients if and when AtkDocument implementors
expose ATK_STATE_BUSY. If the state of an AtkObject which
implements AtkDocument does not include ATK_STATE_BUSY, it
should be safe for clients to assume that the AtkDocument's
static contents are fully loaded into the container.
(Dynamic document contents should be exposed via other
signals.)
The 'load-stopped' signal is emitted when a pending load of
document contents is cancelled, paused, or otherwise
interrupted by the user or application logic. It should not
however be emitted while waiting for a resource (for instance
while blocking on a file or network read) unless a
user-significant timeout has occurred.
The 'page-changed' signal is emitted when the current page of
a document changes, e.g. pressing page up/down in a document
viewer.
## `page_number`
the new page number. If this value is unknown
or not applicable, -1 should be provided.
The 'reload' signal is emitted when the contents of a
document is refreshed from its source. Once 'reload' has
been emitted, a matching 'load-complete' or 'load-stopped'
signal should follow, which clients may await before
interrogating ATK for the latest document content.
`EditableText` should be implemented by UI components which
contain text which the user can edit, via the `Object`
corresponding to that component (see `Object`).
`EditableText` is a subclass of `Text`, and as such, an object
which implements `EditableText` is by definition an `Text`
implementor as well.

This object class is derived from AtkObject. It can be used as a
basis for implementing accessible objects for GObjects which are
not derived from `GtkWidget`. One example of its use is in providing
an accessible object for GnomeCanvasItem in the GAIL library.
# Implements

An ATK object which encapsulates a link or set of links (for
instance in the case of client-side image maps) in a hypertext
document. It may implement the AtkAction interface. AtkHyperlink
may also be used to refer to inline embedded content, since it
allows specification of a start and end offset within the host
AtkHypertext object.
# Implements
[`HyperlinkExt`](trait.HyperlinkExt.html), [`glib::object::ObjectExt`](../glib/object/trait.ObjectExt.html), [`AtkActionExt`](trait.AtkActionExt.html)

# Implementors
[`Hyperlink`](struct.Hyperlink.html)
Gets the index with the hypertext document at which this link ends.
# Returns
the index with the hypertext document at which this link ends
Gets the number of anchors associated with this hyperlink.
# Returns
the number of anchors associated with this hyperlink
Returns the item associated with this hyperlinks nth anchor.
For instance, the returned `Object` will implement `Text`
if `self` is a text hyperlink, `Image` if `self` is an image
hyperlink etc.
Multiple anchors are primarily used by client-side image maps.
## `i`
a (zero-index) integer specifying the desired anchor
# Returns
an `Object` associated with this hyperlinks
i-th anchor
Gets the index with the hypertext document at which this link begins.
# Returns
the index with the hypertext document at which this link begins
Get a the URI associated with the anchor specified
by `i` of `self`.
Multiple anchors are primarily used by client-side image maps.
## `i`
a (zero-index) integer specifying the desired anchor
# Returns
a string specifying the URI
Indicates whether the link currently displays some or all of its
content inline. Ordinary HTML links will usually return
`false`, but an inline <src> HTML element will return
`true`.
# Returns
whether or not this link displays its content inline.
Since the document that a link is associated with may have changed
this method returns `true` if the link is still valid (with
respect to the document it references) and `false` otherwise.
# Returns
whether or not this link is still valid
The signal link-activated is emitted when a link is activated.
AtkHyperlinkImpl allows AtkObjects to refer to their associated
AtkHyperlink instance, if one exists. AtkHyperlinkImpl differs
from AtkHyperlink in that AtkHyperlinkImpl is an interface, whereas
AtkHyperlink is a object type. The AtkHyperlinkImpl interface
allows a client to query an AtkObject for the availability of an
associated AtkHyperlink instance, and obtain that instance. It is
thus particularly useful in cases where embedded content or inline
content within a text object is present, since the embedding text
object implements AtkHypertext and the inline/embedded objects are
exposed as children which implement AtkHyperlinkImpl, in addition
to their being obtainable via AtkHypertext:getLink followed by
AtkHyperlink:getObject.
The AtkHyperlinkImpl interface should be supported by objects
exposed within the hierarchy as children of an AtkHypertext
container which correspond to "links" or embedded content within
the text. HTML anchors are not, for instance, normally exposed
this way, but embedded images and components which appear inline in
the content of a text object are. The AtkHyperlinkIface interface
allows a means of determining which children are hyperlinks in this
sense of the word, and for obtaining their corresponding
AtkHyperlink object, from which the embedding range, URI, etc. can
be obtained.
To some extent this interface exists because, for historical
reasons, AtkHyperlink was defined as an object type, not an
interface. Thus, in order to interact with AtkObjects via
AtkHyperlink semantics, a new interface was required.
# Implements
[`HyperlinkImplExt`](trait.HyperlinkImplExt.html)
Trait containing all `HyperlinkImpl` methods.
# Implementors
[`HyperlinkImpl`](struct.HyperlinkImpl.html)

Describes the type of link
Link is inline
An interface used for objects which implement linking between
multiple resource or content locations, or multiple 'markers'
within a single document. A Hypertext instance is associated with
one or more Hyperlinks, which are associated with particular
offsets within the Hypertext's included content. While this
interface is derived from Text, there is no requirement that
Hypertext instances have textual content; they may implement Image
as well, and Hyperlinks need not have non-zero text offsets.
# Implements

or -1 if there is no hyperlink associated with this character.
Gets the number of links within this hypertext document.
# Returns
the number of links within this hypertext document
The "link-selected" signal is emitted by an AtkHyperText
object when one of the hyperlinks associated with the object
is selected.
## `arg1`
the index of the hyperlink which is selected
`Image` should be implemented by `Object` subtypes on behalf of
components which display image/pixmap information onscreen, and
which provide information (other than just widget borders, etc.)
via that image content. For instance, icons, buttons with icons,
toolbar elements, and image viewing panes typically should
implement `Image`.
`Image` primarily provides two types of information: coordinate
information (useful for screen review mode of screenreaders, and
for use by onscreen magnifiers), and descriptive information. The
descriptive information is provided for alternative, text-only
presentation of the most significant information present in the
image.

images top-left corner.
## `x`
address of `gint` to put x coordinate position; otherwise, -1 if value cannot be obtained.
## `y`
address of `gint` to put y coordinate position; otherwise, -1 if value cannot be obtained.
## `coord_type`
specifies whether the coordinates are relative to the screen
or to the components top level window
Get the width and height in pixels for the specified image.
The values of `width` and `height` are returned as -1 if the

filled with the image width, or -1 if the value cannot be obtained.
## `height`
filled with the image height, or -1 if the value cannot be obtained.
Sets the textual description for this image.

# Implements
[`ObjectFactoryExt`](trait.ObjectFactoryExt.html), [`glib::object::ObjectExt`](../glib/object/trait.ObjectExt.html)
Creates an instance of an `ObjectFactory` which generates primitive
(non-functioning) `AtkObjects`.
# Returns
an instance of an `ObjectFactory`
This class is the primary class for accessibility support via the
Accessibility ToolKit (ATK). Objects which are instances of
`Object` (or instances of AtkObject-derived types) are queried
for properties which relate basic (and generic) properties of a UI
component such as name and description. Instances of `Object`
may also be queried as to whether they implement other ATK
interfaces (e.g. `Action`, `Component`, etc.), as appropriate
to the role which a given UI component plays in a user interface.
All UI components in an application which provide useful
information or services to the user must provide corresponding
`Object` instances on request (in GTK+, for instance, usually on
a call to `gtk_widget_get_accessible` ()), either via ATK support
built into the toolkit for the widget class or ancestor class, or
in the case of custom widgets, if the inherited `Object`
implementation is insufficient, via instances of a new `Object`
subclass.

a UTF-8 string indicating the POSIX-style LC_MESSAGES
locale of `self`.
Gets the accessible parent of the accessible. By default this is
the one assigned with `AtkObjectExt::set_parent`, but it is assumed
that ATK implementors have ways to get the parent of the object
without the need of assigning it manually with
`AtkObjectExt::set_parent`, and will return it with this method.
If you are only interested on the parent assigned with
`AtkObjectExt::set_parent`, use `AtkObjectExt::peek_parent`.
# Returns
an `Object` representing the accessible
parent of the accessible
Gets the role of the accessible.
# Returns
an `Role` which is the role of the accessible
This function is called when implementing subclasses of `Object`.
It does initialization required for the new object. It is intended
that this function should called only in the ...`_new` functions used
to create an instance of a subclass of `Object`
## `data`
a `gpointer` which identifies the object for which the AtkObject was created.
Emits a state-change signal for the specified state.
Note that as a general rule when the state of an existing object changes,
emitting a notification is expected.
## `state`
an `State` whose state is changed
## `value`
a gboolean which indicates whether the state is being set on or off
Gets the accessible parent of the accessible, if it has been
manually assigned with atk_object_set_parent. Otherwise, this
function returns `None`.
This method is intended as an utility for ATK implementors, and not
to be exposed to accessible tools. See `AtkObjectExt::get_parent` for
further reference.
# Returns
an `Object` representing the accessible
parent of the accessible if assigned
Gets a reference to the specified accessible child of the object.
The accessible children are 0-based so the first accessible child is
at index 0, the second at index 1 and so on.
## `i`
a gint representing the position of the child, starting from 0
# Returns
an `Object` representing the specified
accessible child of the accessible.
Gets the `RelationSet` associated with the object.
# Returns
an `RelationSet` representing the relation set
of the object.
Gets a reference to the state set of the accessible; the caller must
unreference it when it is no longer needed.
# Returns
a reference to an `StateSet` which is the state
set of the accessible
Removes a relationship of the specified type with the specified target.
## `relationship`
The `RelationType` of the relation
## `target`
The `Object` which is the target of the relation to be removed.
# Returns
TRUE if the relationship is removed.
Sets the accessible ID of the accessible. This is not meant to be presented
to the user, but to be an ID which is stable over application development.
Typically, this is the gtkbuilder ID. Such an ID will be available for
instance to identify a given well-known accessible object for tailored screen
reading, or for automatic regression testing.
Feature: `v2_34`
## `name`
a character string to be set as the accessible id
Sets the accessible description of the accessible. You can't set
the description to NULL. This is reserved for the initial value. In
this aspect NULL is similar to ATK_ROLE_UNKNOWN. If you want to set
the name to a empty value you can use "".
## `description`
a character string to be set as the accessible description
Sets the accessible name of the accessible. You can't set the name
to NULL. This is reserved for the initial value. In this aspect
NULL is similar to ATK_ROLE_UNKNOWN. If you want to set the name to
a empty value you can use "".
## `name`
a character string to be set as the accessible name
Sets the accessible parent of the accessible. `parent` can be NULL.
## `parent`
an `Object` to be set as the accessible parent
Sets the role of the accessible.
## `role`
an `Role` to be set as the role
The "active-descendant-changed" signal is emitted by an object
which has the state ATK_STATE_MANAGES_DESCENDANTS when the focus
object in the object changes. For instance, a table will emit the
signal when the cell in the table which has focus changes.
## `arg1`
the newly focused object.
The signal "children-changed" is emitted when a child is added or
removed form an object. It supports two details: "add" and
"remove"
## `arg1`
The index of the added or removed child. The value can be
-1. This is used if the value is not known by the implementor
when the child is added/removed or irrelevant.
## `arg2`
A gpointer to the child AtkObject which was added or
removed. If the child was removed, it is possible that it is not
available for the implementor. In that case this pointer can be
NULL.
The signal "property-change" is emitted when an object's property
value changes. `arg1` contains an `PropertyValues` with the name
and the new value of the property whose value has changed. Note
that, as with GObject notify, getting this signal does not
guarantee that the value of the property has actually changed; it
may also be emitted when the setter of the property is called to
reinstate the previous value.
Toolkit implementor note: ATK implementors should use
`gobject::ObjectExt::notify` to emit property-changed
notifications. `Object::property-changed` is needed by the
implementation of `atk_add_global_event_listener` because GObject
notify doesn't support emission hooks.
## `arg1`
an `PropertyValues` containing the new
value of the property which changed.
The "state-change" signal is emitted when an object's state
changes. The detail value identifies the state type which has
changed.
## `arg1`
The name of the state which has changed
## `arg2`
A boolean which indicates whether the state has been set or unset.
The "visible-data-changed" signal is emitted when the visual
appearance of the object changed.

This class is the base object class for a factory used to create an
accessible object for a specific GType. The function
`RegistryExt::set_factory_type` is normally called to store in the
registry the factory type to be used to create an accessible of a
particular GType.
# Implements
[`ObjectFactoryExt`](trait.ObjectFactoryExt.html), [`glib::object::ObjectExt`](../glib/object/trait.ObjectExt.html)
Trait containing all `ObjectFactory` methods.
# Implementors
[`NoOpObjectFactory`](struct.NoOpObjectFactory.html), [`ObjectFactory`](struct.ObjectFactory.html)

# Returns
an `Object` that implements an accessibility
interface on behalf of `obj`
Gets the GType of the accessible which is created by the factory.
# Returns
the type of the accessible which is created by the `self`.
The value G_TYPE_INVALID is returned if no type if found.
Inform `self` that it is no longer being used to create
accessibles. When called, `self` may need to inform
`AtkObjects` which it has created that they need to be re-instantiated.
Note: primarily used for runtime replacement of `AtkObjectFactorys`
in object registries.

[`AtkPlugExt`](trait.AtkPlugExt.html), [`AtkObjectExt`](trait.AtkObjectExt.html), [`glib::object::ObjectExt`](../glib/object/trait.ObjectExt.html), [`ComponentExt`](trait.ComponentExt.html)
Trait containing all `Plug` methods.
# Implementors
[`Plug`](struct.Plug.html)
Creates a new `Plug` instance.
# Returns
the newly created `Plug`
Gets the unique ID of an `Plug` object, which can be used to
embed inside of an `Socket` using `AtkSocketExt::embed`.
Internally, this calls a class function that should be registered
by the IPC layer (usually at-spi2-atk). The implementor of an
`Plug` object should call this function (after atk-bridge is
loaded) and pass the value to the process implementing the
`Socket`, so it could embed the plug.
# Returns
the unique ID for the plug
`Range` are used on `Value`, in order to represent the full
range of a given component (for example an slider or a range
control), or to define each individual subrange this full range is
splitted if available. See `Value` documentation for further
details.
Creates a new `Range`.
## `lower_limit`

The AtkRegistry is normally used to create appropriate ATK "peers"
for user interface components. Application developers usually need
only interact with the AtkRegistry by associating appropriate ATK
implementation classes with GObject classes via the
atk_registry_set_factory_type call, passing the appropriate GType
for application custom widget classes.

## `type_`
a `glib::Type` with which to look up the associated `ObjectFactory`
subclass
# Returns
a `glib::Type` associated with type `type_`

an `Object` type
## `factory_type`
an `ObjectFactory` type to associate with `type_`. Must
implement AtkObject appropriate for `type_`.
An AtkRelation describes a relation between an object and one or
more other objects. The actual relations that an object has with
other objects are defined as an AtkRelationSet, which is a set of
AtkRelations.
# Implements
[`RelationExt`](trait.RelationExt.html), [`glib::object::ObjectExt`](../glib/object/trait.ObjectExt.html)
Trait containing all `Relation` methods.
# Implementors
[`Relation`](struct.Relation.html)

of targets. See also `AtkObjectExt::add_relationship`.
## `targets`
an array of pointers to
`AtkObjects`
## `n_targets`
number of `AtkObjects` pointed to by `targets`
## `relationship`
an `RelationType` with which to create the new
`Relation`

The AtkRelationSet held by an object establishes its relationships
with objects beyond the normal "parent/child" hierarchical
relationships that all user interface objects have.
AtkRelationSets establish whether objects are labelled or
controlled by other components, share group membership with other
components (for instance within a radio-button group), or share
content which "flows" between them, among other types of possible
relationships.
# Implements
[`RelationSetExt`](trait.RelationSetExt.html), [`glib::object::ObjectExt`](../glib/object/trait.ObjectExt.html)
Trait containing all `RelationSet` methods.
# Implementors
[`RelationSet`](struct.RelationSet.html)
Creates a new empty relation set.
# Returns
a new `RelationSet`
Add a new relation to the current relation set if it is not already
present.
This function ref's the AtkRelation so the caller of this function
should unref it to ensure that it will be destroyed when the AtkRelationSet
is destroyed.
## `relation`
an `Relation`
Add a new relation of the specified type with the specified target to
the current relation set if the relation set does not contain a relation
of that type. If it is does contain a relation of that typea the target
is added to the relation.
## `relationship`
an `RelationType`
## `target`
an `Object`
Determines whether the relation set contains a relation that matches the
specified type.
## `relationship`
an `RelationType`
# Returns
`true` if `relationship` is the relationship type of a relation
in `self`, `false` otherwise

a `Relation`, which is the relation at
position i in the set.
Finds a relation that matches the specified type.
## `relationship`
an `RelationType`
# Returns
an `Relation`, which is a relation matching the
specified type.
Removes a relation from the relation set.
This function unref's the `Relation` so it will be deleted unless there
is another reference to it.
## `relation`
an `Relation`
Describes the type of the relation
Not used, represens "no relationship" or an error condition.
Indicates an object controlled by one or more target objects.
Indicates an object is an controller for one or more target objects.
Indicates an object is a label for one or more target objects.
Indicates an object is labelled by one or more target objects.
Indicates an object is a member of a group of one or more target objects.
Indicates an object is a cell in a treetable which is displayed because a cell in the same column is expanded and identifies that cell.
Indicates that the object has content that flows logically to another
AtkObject in a sequential way, (for instance text-flow).
Indicates that the object has content that flows logically from
another AtkObject in a sequential way, (for instance text-flow).
Indicates a subwindow attached to a component but otherwise has no connection in the UI heirarchy to that component.
Indicates that the object visually embeds
another object's content, i.e. this object's content flows around
another's content.
Reciprocal of `RelationType::Embeds`, indicates that
this object's content is visualy embedded in another object.
Indicates that an object is a popup for another object.
Indicates that an object is a parent window of another object.
Reciprocal of `RelationType::DescriptionFor`. Indicates that one
or more target objects provide descriptive information about this object. This relation
type is most appropriate for information that is not essential as its presentation may
be user-configurable and/or limited to an on-demand mechanism such as an assistive
technology command. For brief, essential information such as can be found in a widget's
on-screen label, use `RelationType::LabelledBy`. For an on-screen error message, use
`RelationType::ErrorMessage`. For lengthy extended descriptive information contained in
an on-screen object, consider using `RelationType::Details` as assistive technologies may
provide a means for the user to navigate to objects containing detailed descriptions so
that their content can be more closely reviewed.
Reciprocal of `RelationType::DescribedBy`. Indicates that this
object provides descriptive information about the target object(s). See also
`RelationType::DetailsFor` and `RelationType::ErrorFor`.
Indicates an object is a cell in a treetable and is expanded to display other cells in the same column.
Reciprocal of `RelationType::DetailsFor`. Indicates that this object
has a detailed or extended description, the contents of which can be found in the target
object(s). This relation type is most appropriate for information that is sufficiently
lengthy as to make navigation to the container of that information desirable. For less
verbose information suitable for announcement only, see `RelationType::DescribedBy`. If
the detailed information describes an error condition, `RelationType::ErrorFor` should be
used instead. `Since`: ATK-2.26.
Reciprocal of `RelationType::Details`. Indicates that this object
provides a detailed or extended description about the target object(s). See also
`RelationType::DescriptionFor` and `RelationType::ErrorFor`. `Since`: ATK-2.26.
Reciprocal of `RelationType::ErrorFor`. Indicates that this object
has one or more errors, the nature of which is described in the contents of the target
object(s). Objects that have this relation type should also contain `StateType::InvalidEntry`
in their `StateSet`. `Since`: ATK-2.26.
Reciprocal of `RelationType::ErrorMessage`. Indicates that this object
contains an error message describing an invalid condition in the target object(s). `Since`:
ATK_2.26.
Not used, this value indicates the end of the enumeration.
Describes the role of an object
These are the built-in enumerated roles that UI components can have
in ATK. Other roles may be added at runtime, so an AtkRole >=
`Role::LastDefined` is not necessarily an error.

A menu item used to tear off and reattach its menu
An object that represents an accessible terminal. (Since: 0.6)
An interactive widget that supports multiple lines of text and
optionally accepts user input, but whose purpose is not to solicit user input.
Thus ATK_ROLE_TEXT is appropriate for the text view in a plain text editor
but inappropriate for an input field in a dialog box or web form. For widgets
whose purpose is to solicit input from the user, see ATK_ROLE_ENTRY and
ATK_ROLE_PASSWORD_TEXT. For generic objects which display a brief amount of

An object which describes margins and tab stops, etc. for text objects which it controls (should have CONTROLLER_FOR relation to such). (Since: 1.1.1)
The object is an application object, which may contain `Role::Frame` objects or other types of accessibles. The root accessible of any application's ATK hierarchy should have ATK_ROLE_APPLICATION. (Since: 1.1.4)
The object is a dialog or list containing items for insertion into an entry widget, for instance a list of words for completion of a text entry. (Since: 1.3)
The object is an editable text object in a toolbar. (Since: 1.5)
The object is an embedded container within a document or panel. This role is a grouping "hint" indicating that the contained objects share a context. (Since: 1.7.2)
The object is a component whose textual content may be entered or modified by the user, provided `StateType::Editable` is present. (Since: 1.11)
The object is a graphical depiction of quantitative data. It may contain multiple subelements whose attributes and/or description may be queried to obtain both the quantitative data and information about how the data is being presented. The LABELLED_BY relation is particularly important in interpreting objects of this type, as is the accessible-description property. (Since: 1.11)
The object contains descriptive information, usually textual, about another user interface element such as a table, chart, or image. (Since: 1.11)
The object is a visual frame or container which contains a view of document content. Document frames may occur within another Document instance, in which case the second document may be said to be embedded in the containing instance. HTML frames are often ROLE_DOCUMENT_FRAME. Either this object, or a singleton descendant, should implement the Document interface. (Since: 1.11)
The object serves as a heading for content which follows it in a document. The 'heading level' of the heading, if availabe, may be obtained by querying the object's attributes.
The object is a containing instance which encapsulates a page of information. `Role::Page` is used in documents and content which support a paginated navigation model. (Since: 1.11)

The object is redundant with another object in the hierarchy, and is exposed for purely technical reasons. Objects of this role should normally be ignored by clients. (Since: 1.11)
The object is a container for form controls, for instance as part of a
web form or user-input form within a document. This role is primarily a tag/convenience for
clients when navigating complex documents, it is not expected that ordinary GUI containers will
always have ATK_ROLE_FORM. (Since: 1.12.0)
The object is a hypertext anchor, i.e. a "link" in a
hypertext document. Such objects are distinct from 'inline'
content which may also use the Hypertext/Hyperlink interfaces
to indicate the range/location within a text object where
an inline or embedded object lies. (Since: 1.12.1)
The object is a window or similar viewport
which is used to allow composition or input of a 'complex character',
in other words it is an "input method window." (Since: 1.12.1)

A non-collapsible list of choices the user can select from. (Since: 2.1.0)
A group of related widgets. This group typically has a label. (Since: 2.1.0)
An image map object. Usually a graphic with multiple hotspots, where each hotspot can be activated resulting in the loading of another document or section of a document. (Since: 2.1.0)
A transitory object designed to present a message to the user, typically at the desktop level rather than inside a particular application. (Since: 2.1.0)
An object designed to present a message to the user within an existing window. (Since: 2.1.0)
A bar that serves as a level indicator to, for instance, show the strength of a password or the state of a battery. (Since: 2.7.3)
A bar that serves as the title of a window or a
dialog. (Since: 2.12)
An object which contains a text section
that is quoted from another source. (Since: 2.12)
An object which represents an audio element. (Since: 2.12)
An object which represents a video element. (Since: 2.12)

composition that forms an independent part of a document, page, or
site. Examples: A blog entry, a news story, a forum post. (Since: 2.12)
A region of a web page intended as a
navigational landmark. This is designed to allow Assistive

A text widget or container holding log content, such
as chat history and error logs. In this role there is a
relationship between the arrival of new items in the log and the
reading order. The log contains a meaningful sequence and new
information is added only to the end of the log, not at arbitrary
points. (Since: 2.12)
A container where non-essential information
changes frequently. Common usages of marquee include stock tickers
and ad banners. The primary difference between a marquee and a log
is that logs usually have a meaningful order or sequence of
important content changes. (Since: 2.12)
A text widget or container that holds a mathematical
expression. (Since: 2.12)
A widget whose purpose is to display a rating,
such as the number of stars associated with a song in a media
player. Objects of this role should also implement
AtkValue. (Since: 2.12)
An object containing a numerical counter which
indicates an amount of elapsed time from a start point, or the time
remaining until an end point. (Since: 2.12)
An object that represents a list of
term-value groups. A term-value group represents a individual
description and consist of one or more names
(ATK_ROLE_DESCRIPTION_TERM) followed by one or more values
(ATK_ROLE_DESCRIPTION_VALUE). For each list, there should not be
more than one group with the same term name. (Since: 2.12)
An object that represents a term or phrase
with a corresponding definition. (Since: 2.12)
An object that represents the
description, definition or value of a term. (Since: 2.12)
A generic non-container object whose purpose is to display a
brief amount of information to the user and whose role is known by the
implementor but lacks semantic value for the user. Examples in which
`Role::Static` is appropriate include the message displayed in a message box
and an image used as an alternative means to display text. `Role::Static`
should not be applied to widgets which are traditionally interactive, objects
which display a significant amount of content, or any object which has an
accessible relation pointing to another object. Implementors should expose the
displayed information through the accessible name of the object. If doing so seems
inappropriate, it may indicate that a different role should be used. For
labels which describe another widget, see `Role::Label`. For text views, see
`Role::Text`. For generic containers, see `Role::Panel`. For objects whose
role is not known by the implementor, see `Role::Unknown`. (Since: 2.16)
An object that represents a mathematical fraction.
(Since: 2.16)
An object that represents a mathematical expression
displayed with a radical. (Since: 2.16)
An object that contains text that is displayed as a
subscript. (Since: 2.16)
An object that contains text that is displayed as a
superscript. (Since: 2.16)
An object that contains the text of a footnote. (Since: 2.26)
Content previously deleted or proposed to be
deleted, e.g. in revision history or a content view providing suggestions

`Selection` should be implemented by UI components with children
which are exposed by `atk_object_ref_child` and
`atk_object_get_n_children`, if the use of the parent UI component
ordinarily involves selection of one or more of the objects
corresponding to those `Object` children - for example,
selectable lists.
Note that other types of "selection" (for instance text selection)
are accomplished a other ATK interfaces - `Selection` is limited
to the selection/deselection of children.
# Implements
[`SelectionExt`](trait.SelectionExt.html)
Trait containing all `Selection` methods.
# Implementors
[`NoOpObject`](struct.NoOpObject.html), [`Selection`](struct.Selection.html)
Adds the specified accessible child of the object to the
object's selection.
## `i`
a `gint` specifying the child index.
# Returns
TRUE if success, FALSE otherwise.
Clears the selection in the object so that no children in the object
are selected.
# Returns
TRUE if success, FALSE otherwise.
Gets the number of accessible children currently selected.
Note: callers should not rely on `None` or on a zero value for
indication of whether AtkSelectionIface is implemented, they should
use type checking/interface checking macros or the
`atk_get_accessible_value` convenience method.
# Returns
a gint representing the number of items selected, or 0
if `self` does not implement this interface.
Determines if the current child of this object is selected
Note: callers should not rely on `None` or on a zero value for
indication of whether AtkSelectionIface is implemented, they should
use type checking/interface checking macros or the
`atk_get_accessible_value` convenience method.
## `i`
a `gint` specifying the child index.
# Returns
a gboolean representing the specified child is selected, or 0
if `self` does not implement this interface.
Gets a reference to the accessible object representing the specified
selected child of the object.
Note: callers should not rely on `None` or on a zero value for
indication of whether AtkSelectionIface is implemented, they should
use type checking/interface checking macros or the
`atk_get_accessible_value` convenience method.
## `i`
a `gint` specifying the index in the selection set. (e.g. the
ith selection as opposed to the ith child).
# Returns
an `Object` representing the
selected accessible, or `None` if `self` does not implement this
interface.
Removes the specified child of the object from the object's selection.
## `i`
a `gint` specifying the index in the selection set. (e.g. the
ith selection as opposed to the ith child).
# Returns
TRUE if success, FALSE otherwise.
Causes every child of the object to be selected if the object
supports multiple selections.
# Returns
TRUE if success, FALSE otherwise.
The "selection-changed" signal is emitted by an object which
implements AtkSelection interface when the selection changes.
Together with `Plug`, `Socket` provides the ability to embed
accessibles from one process into another in a fashion that is
transparent to assistive technologies. `Socket` works as the
container of `Plug`, embedding it using the method
`AtkSocketExt::embed`. Any accessible contained in the `Plug` will
appear to the assistive technologies as being inside the
application that created the `Socket`.
The communication between a `Socket` and a `Plug` is done by
the IPC layer of the accessibility framework, normally implemented
by the D-Bus based implementation of AT-SPI (at-spi2). If that is
the case, at-spi-atk2 is the responsible to implement the abstract
methods `AtkPlugExt::get_id` and `AtkSocketExt::embed`, so an ATK
implementor shouldn't reimplement them. The process that contains
the `Plug` is responsible to send the ID returned by
`atk_plug_id` to the process that contains the `Socket`, so it
could call the method `AtkSocketExt::embed` in order to embed it.
For the same reasons, an implementor doesn't need to implement
`AtkObjectExt::get_n_accessible_children` and
`AtkObjectExt::ref_accessible_child`. All the logic related to those
functions will be implemented by the IPC layer.
# Implements
[`AtkSocketExt`](trait.AtkSocketExt.html), [`AtkObjectExt`](trait.AtkObjectExt.html), [`glib::object::ObjectExt`](../glib/object/trait.ObjectExt.html), [`ComponentExt`](trait.ComponentExt.html)
Trait containing all `Socket` methods.
# Implementors
[`Socket`](struct.Socket.html)
Creates a new `Socket`.
# Returns
the newly created `Socket` instance
Embeds the children of an `Plug` as the children of the
`Socket`. The plug may be in the same process or in a different
process.
The class item used by this function should be filled in by the IPC
layer (usually at-spi2-atk). The implementor of the AtkSocket
should call this function and pass the id for the plug as returned
by `AtkPlugExt::get_id`. It is the responsibility of the application
to pass the plug id on to the process implementing the `Socket`
as needed.
## `plug_id`
the ID of an `Plug`
Determines whether or not the socket has an embedded plug.
# Returns
TRUE if a plug is embedded in the socket
An AtkStateSet is a read-only representation of the full set of `AtkStates`
that apply to an object at a given time. This set is not meant to be
modified, but rather created when `AtkObjectExt::ref_state_set`() is called.
# Implements
[`StateSetExt`](trait.StateSetExt.html), [`glib::object::ObjectExt`](../glib/object/trait.ObjectExt.html)
Trait containing all `StateSet` methods.
# Implementors
[`StateSet`](struct.StateSet.html)
Creates a new empty state set.
# Returns
a new `StateSet`
Adds the state of the specified type to the state set if it is not already
present.
Note that because an `StateSet` is a read-only object, this method should
be used to add a state to a newly-created set which will then be returned by
`AtkObjectExt::ref_state_set`. It should not be used to modify the existing state
of an object. See also `AtkObjectExt::notify_state_change`.
## `type_`
an `StateType`
# Returns
`true` if the state for `type_` is not already in `self`.
Adds the states of the specified types to the state set.
Note that because an `StateSet` is a read-only object, this method should
be used to add states to a newly-created set which will then be returned by
`AtkObjectExt::ref_state_set`. It should not be used to modify the existing state
of an object. See also `AtkObjectExt::notify_state_change`.
## `types`
an array of `StateType`
## `n_types`
The number of elements in the array
Constructs the intersection of the two sets, returning `None` if the
intersection is empty.
## `compare_set`
another `StateSet`
# Returns
a new `StateSet` which is the intersection of
the two sets.
Removes all states from the state set.
Checks whether the state for the specified type is in the specified set.
## `type_`
an `StateType`
# Returns
`true` if `type_` is the state type is in `self`.
Checks whether the states for all the specified types are in the
specified set.
## `types`
an array of `StateType`
## `n_types`
The number of elements in the array
# Returns
`true` if all the states for `type_` are in `self`.
Checks whether the state set is empty, i.e. has no states set.
# Returns
`true` if `self` has no states set, otherwise `false`
Constructs the union of the two sets.
## `compare_set`
another `StateSet`
# Returns
a new `StateSet` which is
the union of the two sets, returning `None` is empty.
Removes the state for the specified type from the state set.
Note that because an `StateSet` is a read-only object, this method should
be used to remove a state to a newly-created set which will then be returned
by `AtkObjectExt::ref_state_set`. It should not be used to modify the existing
state of an object. See also `AtkObjectExt::notify_state_change`.
## `type_`
an `AtkType`
# Returns
`true` if `type_` was the state type is in `self`.
Constructs the exclusive-or of the two sets, returning `None` is empty.
The set returned by this operation contains the states in exactly
one of the two sets.
## `compare_set`
another `StateSet`
# Returns
a new `StateSet` which contains the states
which are in exactly one of the two sets.
The possible types of states of an object
Indicates an invalid state - probably an error condition.
Indicates a window is currently the active window, or an object is the active subelement within a container or table. ATK_STATE_ACTIVE should not be used for objects which have ATK_STATE_FOCUSABLE or ATK_STATE_SELECTABLE: Those objects should use ATK_STATE_FOCUSED and ATK_STATE_SELECTED respectively. ATK_STATE_ACTIVE is a means to indicate that an object which is not focusable and not selectable is the currently-active item within its parent container.
Indicates that the object is 'armed', i.e. will be activated by if a pointer button-release event occurs within its bounds. Buttons often enter this state when a pointer click occurs within their bounds, as a precursor to activation. ATK_STATE_ARMED has been deprecated since ATK-2.16 and should not be used in newly-written code.
Indicates the current object is busy, i.e. onscreen representation is in the process of changing, or the object is temporarily unavailable for interaction due to activity already in progress. This state may be used by implementors of Document to indicate that content loading is underway. It also may indicate other 'pending' conditions; clients may wish to interrogate this object when the ATK_STATE_BUSY flag is removed.
Indicates this object is currently checked, for instance a checkbox is 'non-empty'.
Indicates that this object no longer has a valid backing widget (for instance, if its peer object has been destroyed)
Indicates that this object can contain text, and that the
user can change the textual contents of this object by editing those contents
directly. For an object which is expected to be editable due to its type, but
which cannot be edited due to the application or platform preventing the user
from doing so, that object's `StateSet` should lack ATK_STATE_EDITABLE and
should contain ATK_STATE_READ_ONLY.
Indicates that this object is enabled, i.e. that it currently reflects some application state. Objects that are "greyed out" may lack this state, and may lack the STATE_SENSITIVE if direct user interaction cannot cause them to acquire STATE_ENABLED. See also: ATK_STATE_SENSITIVE
Indicates this object allows progressive disclosure of its children
Indicates this object its expanded - see ATK_STATE_EXPANDABLE above
Indicates this object can accept keyboard focus, which means all events resulting from typing on the keyboard will normally be passed to it when it has focus
Indicates this object currently has the keyboard focus
Indicates the orientation of this object is horizontal; used, for instance, by objects of ATK_ROLE_SCROLL_BAR. For objects where vertical/horizontal orientation is especially meaningful.
Indicates this object is minimized and is represented only by an icon
Indicates something must be done with this object before the user can interact with an object in a different window
Indicates this (text) object can contain multiple lines of text
Indicates this object allows more than one of its children to be selected at the same time, or in the case of text objects, that the object supports non-contiguous text selections.
Indicates this object paints every pixel within its rectangular region.
Indicates this object is currently pressed.
Indicates the size of this object is not fixed
Indicates this object is the child of an object that allows its children to be selected and that this child is one of those children that can be selected
Indicates this object is the child of an object that allows its children to be selected and that this child is one of those children that has been selected
Indicates this object is sensitive, e.g. to user interaction.
STATE_SENSITIVE usually accompanies STATE_ENABLED for user-actionable controls,
but may be found in the absence of STATE_ENABLED if the current visible state of the
control is "disconnected" from the application state. In such cases, direct user interaction
can often result in the object gaining STATE_SENSITIVE, for instance if a user makes
an explicit selection using an object whose current state is ambiguous or undefined.
`see` STATE_ENABLED, STATE_INDETERMINATE.
Indicates this object, the object's parent, the object's parent's parent, and so on,
are all 'shown' to the end-user, i.e. subject to "exposure" if blocking or obscuring objects do not interpose
between this object and the top of the window stack.
Indicates this (text) object can contain only a single line of text
Indicates that the information returned for this object may no longer be
synchronized with the application state. This is implied if the object has STATE_TRANSIENT,
and can also occur towards the end of the object peer's lifecycle. It can also be used to indicate that
the index associated with this object has changed since the user accessed the object (in lieu of
"index-in-parent-changed" events).
Indicates this object is transient, i.e. a snapshot which may not emit events when its
state changes. Data from objects with ATK_STATE_TRANSIENT should not be cached, since there may be no
notification given when the cached data becomes obsolete.
Indicates the orientation of this object is vertical
Indicates this object is visible, e.g. has been explicitly marked for exposure to the user.
**note**: `StateType::Visible` is no guarantee that the object is actually unobscured on the screen, only
that it is 'potentially' visible, barring obstruction, being scrolled or clipped out of the
field of view, or having an ancestor container that has not yet made visible.
A widget is potentially onscreen if it has both `StateType::Visible` and `StateType::Showing`.
The absence of `StateType::Visible` and `StateType::Showing` is semantically equivalent to saying
that an object is 'hidden'. See also `StateType::Truncated`, which applies if an object with
`StateType::Visible` and `StateType::Showing` set lies within a viewport which means that its
contents are clipped, e.g. a truncated spreadsheet cell or
an image within a scrolling viewport. Mostly useful for screen-review and magnification
algorithms.
Indicates that "active-descendant-changed" event
is sent when children become 'active' (i.e. are selected or navigated to onscreen).
Used to prevent need to enumerate all children in very large containers, like tables.
The presence of STATE_MANAGES_DESCENDANTS is an indication to the client.
that the children should not, and need not, be enumerated by the client.
Objects implementing this state are expected to provide relevant state
notifications to listening clients, for instance notifications of visibility
changes and activation of their contained child objects, without the client
having previously requested references to those children.
Indicates that the value, or some other quantifiable
property, of this AtkObject cannot be fully determined. In the case of a large
data set in which the total number of items in that set is unknown (e.g. 1 of
999+), implementors should expose the currently-known set size (999) along
with this state. In the case of a check box, this state should be used to
indicate that the check box is a tri-state check box which is currently
neither checked nor unchecked.
Indicates that an object is truncated, e.g. a text value in a speradsheet cell.
Indicates that explicit user interaction with an object is required by the user interface, e.g. a required field in a "web-form" interface.
Indicates that the object has encountered an error condition due to failure of input validation. For instance, a form control may acquire this state in response to invalid or malformed user input.
Indicates that the object in question implements some form of ¨typeahead¨ or
pre-selection behavior whereby entering the first character of one or more sub-elements
causes those elements to scroll into view or become selected. Subsequent character input
may narrow the selection further as long as one or more sub-elements match the string.
This state is normally only useful and encountered on objects that implement Selection.
In some cases the typeahead behavior may result in full or partial ¨completion¨ of
the data in the input field, in which case these input events may trigger text-changed
events from the AtkText interface. This state supplants `Role::Autocomplete`.
Indicates that the object in question supports text selection. It should only be exposed on objects which implement the Text interface, in order to distinguish this state from `StateType::Selectable`, which infers that the object in question is a selectable child of an object which implements Selection. While similar, text selection and subelement selection are distinct operations.
Indicates that the object is the "default" active component, i.e. the object which is activated by an end-user press of the "Enter" or "Return" key. Typically a "close" or "submit" button.
Indicates that the object changes its appearance dynamically as an inherent part of its presentation. This state may come and go if an object is only temporarily animated on the way to a 'final' onscreen presentation.
**note**: some applications, notably content viewers, may not be able to detect
all kinds of animated content. Therefore the absence of this state should not
be taken as definitive evidence that the object's visual representation is
static; this state is advisory.
Indicates that the object (typically a hyperlink) has already been 'activated', and/or its backing data has already been downloaded, rendered, or otherwise "visited".
Indicates this object has the potential to be
checked, such as a checkbox or toggle-able table cell. `Since`:
ATK-2.12
Indicates that the object has a popup context
menu or sub-level menu which may or may not be showing. This means
that activation renders conditional content. Note that ordinary
tooltips are not considered popups in this context. `Since`: ATK-2.12
Indicates this object has a tooltip. `Since`: ATK-2.16
Indicates that a widget which is ENABLED and SENSITIVE
has a value which can be read, but not modified, by the user. Note that this
state should only be applied to widget types whose value is normally directly
user modifiable, such as check boxes, radio buttons, spin buttons, text input
fields, and combo boxes, as a means to convey that the expected interaction
with that widget is not possible. When the expected interaction with a
widget does not include modification by the user, as is the case with
labels and containers, ATK_STATE_READ_ONLY should not be applied. See also
ATK_STATE_EDITABLE. `Since`: ATK-2-16
Not a valid state, used for finding end of enumeration
An interface whereby an object allows its backing content to be
streamed to clients. Typical implementors would be images or
icons, HTML content, or multimedia display/rendering widgets.
Negotiation of content type is allowed. Clients may examine the
backing data and transform, convert, or parse the content in order
to present it in an alternate form to end-users.
The AtkStreamableContent interface is particularly useful for
saving, printing, or post-processing entire documents, or for
persisting alternate views of a document. If document content
itself is being serialized, stored, or converted, then use of the
AtkStreamableContent interface can help address performance
issues. Unlike most ATK interfaces, this interface is not strongly
tied to the current user-agent view of the a particular document,
but may in some cases give access to the underlying model data.

Gets the character string of the specified mime type. The first mime
type is at position 0, the second at position 1, and so on.

# Returns
a gchar* representing the specified mime type; the caller
should not free the character string.
Gets the number of mime types supported by this object.
# Returns
a gint which is the number of mime types supported by the object.

may be streamed in the specified mime-type, if one is available.
If mime_type is NULL, the URI for the default (and possibly only) mime-type is
returned.
Note that it is possible for get_uri to return NULL but for
get_stream to work nonetheless, since not all GIOChannels connect to URIs.
## `mime_type`
a gchar* representing the mime type, or NULL to request a URI
for the default mime type.
# Returns

if no corresponding URI can be constructed.
`Table` should be implemented by components which present
elements ordered via rows and columns. It may also be used to
present tree-structured information if the nodes of the trees can
be said to contain multiple "columns". Individual elements of an
`Table` are typically referred to as "cells". Those cells should
implement the interface `TableCell`, but `Atk` doesn't require
them to be direct children of the current `Table`. They can be
grand-children, grand-grand-children etc. `Table` provides the
API needed to get a individual cell based on the row and column
numbers.
Children of `Table` are frequently "lightweight" objects, that
is, they may not have backing widgets in the host UI toolkit. They
are therefore often transient.
Since tables are often very complex, `Table` includes provision
for offering simplified summary information, as well as row and
column headers and captions. Headers and captions are `AtkObjects`
which may implement other interfaces (`Text`, `Image`, etc.) as
appropriate. `Table` summaries may themselves be (simplified)
`AtkTables`, etc.
Note for implementors: in the past, `Table` required that all the
cells should be direct children of `Table`, and provided some
index based methods to request the cells. The practice showed that
that forcing made `Table` implementation complex, and hard to
expose other kind of children, like rows or captions. Right now,
index-based methods are deprecated.

`Text` should be implemented by `AtkObjects` on behalf of widgets
that have text content which is either attributed or otherwise
non-trivial. `AtkObjects` whose text content is simple,
unattributed, and very brief may expose that content via
`AtkObjectExt::get_name` instead; however if the text is editable,
multi-line, typically longer than three or four words, attributed,
selectable, or if the object already uses the 'name' ATK property
for other information, the `Text` interface should be used to
expose the text content. In the case of editable text content,
`EditableText` (a subtype of the `Text` interface) should be
implemented instead.
`Text` provides not only traversal facilities and change
notification for text content, but also caret tracking and glyph
bounding box calculations. Note that the text strings are exposed
as UTF-8, and are therefore potentially multi-byte, and
caret-to-byte offset mapping makes no assumptions about the
character length; also bounding box glyph-to-offset mapping may be
complex for languages which use ligatures.

# Implements
[`glib::object::ObjectExt`](../glib/object/trait.ObjectExt.html)
`Value` should be implemented for components which either display
a value from a bounded range, or which allow the user to specify a
value from a bounded range, or both. For instance, most sliders and
range controls, as well as dials, should have `Object`
representations which implement `Value` on the component's
behalf. `AtKValues` may be read-only, in which case attempts to
alter the value return would fail.
``On the subject of current value text``
``
In addition to providing the current value, implementors can
optionally provide an end-user-consumable textual description
associated with this value. This description should be included
when the numeric value fails to convey the full, on-screen
representation seen by users.
``
``
``Password strength``
A password strength meter whose value changes as the user types
their new password. Red is used for values less than 4.0, yellow
for values between 4.0 and 7.0, and green for values greater than
7.0. In this instance, value text should be provided by the
implementor. Appropriate value text would be "weak", "acceptable,"
and "strong" respectively.
``
A level bar whose value changes to reflect the battery charge. The
color remains the same regardless of the charge and there is no
on-screen text reflecting the fullness of the battery. In this
case, because the position within the bar is the only indication
the user has of the current charge, value text should not be
provided by the implementor.
``Implementor Notes``
``
Implementors should bear in mind that assistive technologies will
likely prefer the value text provided over the numeric value when
presenting a widget's value. As a result, strings not intended for
end users should not be exposed in the value text, and strings
which are exposed should be localized. In the case of widgets which
display value text on screen, for instance through a separate label
in close proximity to the value-displaying widget, it is still
expected that implementors will expose the value text using the
above API.
``
``
`Value` should NOT be implemented for widgets whose displayed
value is not reflective of a meaningful amount. For instance, a
progress pulse indicator whose value alternates between 0.0 and 1.0
to indicate that some process is still taking place should not
implement `Value` because the current value does not reflect
progress towards completion.
``
``
``
``On the subject of ranges``
``
In addition to providing the minimum and maximum values,
implementors can optionally provide details about subranges
associated with the widget. These details should be provided by the
implementor when both of the following are communicated visually to
the end user:
``
``
``The existence of distinct ranges such as "weak",
"acceptable", and "strong" indicated by color, bar tick marks,
and/or on-screen text.``
``Where the current value stands within a given subrange,
for instance illustrating progression from very "weak" towards
nearly "acceptable" through changes in shade and/or position on
the bar within the "weak" subrange.``
``
``
If both of the above do not apply to the widget, it should be
sufficient to expose the numeric value, along with the value text
if appropriate, to make the widget accessible.
``
``Implementor Notes``
``
If providing subrange details is deemed necessary, all possible
values of the widget are expected to fall within one of the
subranges defined by the implementor.
``
``
``
``On the subject of localization of end-user-consumable text
values``
``
Because value text and subrange descriptors are human-consumable,
implementors are expected to provide localized strings which can be
directly presented to end users via their assistive technology. In
order to simplify this for implementors, implementors can use
`ValueType::get_localized_name` with the following
already-localized constants for commonly-needed values can be used:
``
``
``ATK_VALUE_VERY_WEAK``
``ATK_VALUE_WEAK``
``ATK_VALUE_ACCEPTABLE``
``ATK_VALUE_STRONG``
``ATK_VALUE_VERY_STRONG``
``ATK_VALUE_VERY_LOW``
``ATK_VALUE_LOW``
``ATK_VALUE_MEDIUM``
``ATK_VALUE_HIGH``
``ATK_VALUE_VERY_HIGH``
``ATK_VALUE_VERY_BAD``
``ATK_VALUE_BAD``
``ATK_VALUE_GOOD``
``ATK_VALUE_VERY_GOOD``
``ATK_VALUE_BEST``
``ATK_VALUE_SUBSUBOPTIMAL``
``ATK_VALUE_SUBOPTIMAL``
``ATK_VALUE_OPTIMAL``
``
``
Proposals for additional constants, along with their use cases,
should be submitted to the GNOME Accessibility Team.
``
``
``On the subject of changes``
``
Note that if there is a textual description associated with the new
numeric value, that description should be included regardless of
whether or not it has also changed.

Sets the value of this object.
This method is intended to provide a way to change the value of the
object. In any case, it is possible that the value can't be
modified (ie: a read-only component). If the value changes due this
call, it is possible that the text could change, and will trigger
an `Value::value-changed` signal emission.
Note for implementors: the deprecated `Value::set_current_value`
method returned TRUE or FALSE depending if the value was assigned
or not. In the practice several implementors were not able to
decide it, and returned TRUE in any case. For that reason it is not
required anymore to return if the value was properly assigned or
not.
## `new_value`
a double which is the desired new accessible value.
The 'value-changed' signal is emitted when the current value
that represent the object changes. `value` is the numerical
representation of this new value. `text` is the human
readable text alternative of `value`, and can be NULL if it is
not available. Note that if there is a textual description
associated with the new numeric value, that description
should be included regardless of whether or not it has also
changed.
Example: a password meter whose value changes as the user
types their new password. Appropiate value text would be
"weak", "acceptable" and "strong".
## `value`
the new value in a numerical form.
## `text`
human readable text alternative (also called
description) of this object. NULL if not available.
Default types for a given value. Those are defined in order to
easily get localized strings to describe a given value or a given
subrange, using `ValueType::get_localized_name`.
`Window` should be implemented by the UI elements that represent
a top-level window, such as the main window of an application or
dialog.
# Implements
[`AtkWindowExt`](trait.AtkWindowExt.html), [`AtkObjectExt`](trait.AtkObjectExt.html), [`glib::object::ObjectExt`](../glib/object/trait.ObjectExt.html)
Trait containing all `Window` methods.
# Implementors
[`NoOpObject`](struct.NoOpObject.html), [`Window`](struct.Window.html)
The signal `Window::activate` is emitted when a window
becomes the active window of the application or session.
The signal `Window::create` is emitted when a new window
is created.
The signal `Window::deactivate` is emitted when a window is
no longer the active window of the application or session.
The signal `Window::destroy` is emitted when a window is
destroyed.
The signal `Window::maximize` is emitted when a window
is maximized.
The signal `Window::minimize` is emitted when a window
is minimized.
The signal `Window::move` is emitted when a window
is moved.
The signal `Window::resize` is emitted when a window
is resized.
The signal `Window::restore` is emitted when a window
is restored.
