### class spark.accessibility.SliderBaseAccImpl This is the accessibility implementation class for spark.components.HSlider and spark.components.VSlider. When a Spark Slider is created, its accessibilityImplementation property is set to an instance of this class. The Flash Player then uses this class to allow MSAA clients such as screen readers to see and manipulate the Slider. See the mx.accessibility.AccImpl and flash.accessibility.AccessibilityImplementation classes for background information about accessibility implementation classes and MSAA. #### Children A Slider has 3 MSAA children: 1. Clickable area to the left (or bottom) of thumb 2. Thumb 3. Clickable area to the right (or top) of thumb #### Role The MSAA Role of a Slider is ROLE_SYSTEM_SLIDER. The Role of each child is as follows: 1. ROLE_SYSTEM_PUSHBUTTON 2. ROLE_SYSTEM_INDICATOR 3. ROLE_SYSTEM_PUSHBUTTON #### Name The MSAA Name of a Slider is, by default, an empty string. When wrapped in a FormItem element, the Name is the FormItem's label. To override this behavior, set the Slider's accessibilityName property. The Name of each child is as follows: 1. "Page left" for HSlider; "Page up" for VSlider 2. "Position" 3. "Page right" for HSlider; "Page down" for VSlider When the Name of the Slider or one of its child parts changes, a Slider dispatches the MSAA event EVENT_OBJECT_NAMECHANGE with the proper childID for the part or 0 for itself. #### Description The MSAA Description of a Slider is, by default, the empty string, but you can set the Slider's accessibilityDescription property. The Description of each child part is the empty string. #### State The MSAA state of a Slider is a combination of: * STATE_SYSTEM_UNAVAILABLE (when enabled is false) * STATE_SYSTEM_FOCUSABLE (when enabled is true) * STATE_SYSTEM_FOCUSED (when enabled is true and the Slider has focus) The State of each child part is * STATE_SYSTEM_UNAVAILABLE (when enabled is false) When the State of the Slider or one of its child parts changes, a Slider dispatches the MSAA event EVENT_OBJECT_STATECHANGE with the proper childID for the part or 0 for itself. #### Value The MSAA Value of a Slider is a number between 0 and 100. The child parts do not have MSAA values. When the Value of the Slider changes, A Slider dispatches the MSAA event EVENT_OBJECT_VALUECHANGE. #### Location The MSAA Location of a Slider or its thumb is its bounding rectangle. For the two children representing the trackbar regions adjacent to the thumb, the slider's bounding rectangle is returned. #### Default Action A Slider and its child parts have no default action. #### Focus A Slider accepts focus. When it does so, it dispatches the MSAA event EVENT_OBJECT_FOCUS. #### Selection A Slider does not support selection in the MSAA sense.
