Property Value

Type: System.String
A String representing the name of the control that is used by accessibility client applications. The default is a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Remarks

The AccessibleName property is a label that briefly describes and identifies the object within its container. For example, a shape might have an AccessibleName of "small oval" or "blue square." A line might have an AccessibleName of "vertical line" or "diagonal red line."

Examples

The following example demonstrates how to set the AccessibleName and AccessibleDescription properties for an OvalShape control. Assume that you have added a picture file that is named "cactus" as a resource in your project.

Dim OvalShape1 As New OvalShape
Dim canvas As New ShapeContainer
' Set the form as the parent of the ShapeContainer.
canvas.Parent = Me
' Set the ShapeContainer as the parent of the OvalShape.
OvalShape1.Parent = canvas
' Assign an image resource to the BackgroundImage property.
OvalShape1.BackgroundImage = My.Resources.cactus
OvalShape1.Size = New Size(My.Resources.cactus.Size)
' Assign the AccessibleName and AccessibleDescription text.
OvalShape1.AccessibleName = "Image"
OvalShape1.AccessibleDescription = "A picture of a cactus"

OvalShape OvalShape1 = new OvalShape();
ShapeContainer canvas = new ShapeContainer();
// Set the form as the parent of the ShapeContainer.
canvas.Parent = this;
// Set the ShapeContainer as the parent of the OvalShape.
OvalShape1.Parent = canvas;
// Assign an image resource to the BackgroundImage property.
OvalShape1.BackgroundImage = VbPowerPacksShapeAccessibleCS.Properties.Resources.cactus;
OvalShape1.Size = new Size(VbPowerPacksShapeAccessibleCS.Properties.Resources.cactus.Height, 
    VbPowerPacksShapeAccessibleCS.Properties.Resources.cactus.Width);
// Assign the AccessibleName and AccessibleDescription text.
OvalShape1.AccessibleName = "Image";
OvalShape1.AccessibleDescription = "A picture of a cactus";
