Here is a list of all JavaFX UI controls and charts, as well as details about their roles and current state of support for accessibility.
UI Controls
| UI Control / Class | Role | A11y Status | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Button / ButtonBase | Working | ||
| CheckBox | Working | ||
| ChoiceBox | Working | Joe | |
| ColorPicker | Joe | ||
| ComboBox / ComboBoxBase | Working on Windows | After pressing Alt+Down, choosing an item, and pressing Enter, the a11y focus won't go back to the combobox. Need to re-test the popup (perhaps with a FakeCombo) to ensure it doesn't read any nonsense (like "WinAccessible-ComboboxListViewSkin$8 10 List with 3 items"). This can depend on how our popups work for a11y in general, and also depend on ListView support. Mac: I didn't really manage to get it working there because some things just didn't work well on OS X 10.8. So it may need some more work. In particular, the fake relationship between the list and the combo can be troublesome on Mac, but IIRC, it's needed on Windows. | |
| DatePicker / DateCell | In Progress | Basic support added on Mac to report the date back to the OS. | |
| Hyperlink | Working | ||
| Label / Labeled | Working | ||
| ListView / ListCell | Working | ||
| ContextMenu | Working* | Not working on Mac 10.8. | |
MenuBar | Working | Consider using AXMenuBarItem on Mac for MenuItem inside a MenuBar (as per Apple documentation). So far no benefits was seen from doing this to justify the extra complexity. Note the limitation of ContextMenu on Mac 10.8 are visible while testing MenuBar. | |
MenuItem / Menu | Working | Item state including checked, disable, submenu are reported correctly on mac and windows. Accelerators are also reported correctly on both platforms. | |
| MenuButton | Working | It is an AXMenuButton on Mac and a UIA_ButtonControlTypeId on Windows. On both platforms the fire action opens the menu. | |
| SplitMenuButton | Working | It is a AXButton on Mac and a UIA_SplitButtonControlTypeId on Windows. On both platforms the fire actions executes the button, and expand/collapse actions open and close the menu. | |

| PopupControl | N/A | PopupControl by itself has nothing to report to ayy1 | |
