Description
Property; lets you control screen reader accessibility options for SWF files, movie clips, buttons,
dynamic text fields, and input text fields at runtime. These properties override the corresponding
settings available in the Accessibility panel during authoring. For changes to these properties to
take effect, you must call
Accessibility.updateProperties(). For information on the
Accessibility panel, see “The Flash Accessibility panel” in Using Flash.
To determine whether the player is running in an environment that supports accessibility aids, use
System.capabilities.hasAccessibility.
The following table lists the name and data type of each
_accProps property, its equivalent
setting in the Accessibility panel, and the kinds of objects to which the property can be applied.
The term inverse logic means that the property setting is the inverse of the corresponding setting
in the Accessibility panel. For example, setting the
silent property to true is equivalent to
deselecting the Make Movie Accessible or Make Object Accessible option.
