AccessibleObject.Description Property

Definition

Gets a string that describes the visual appearance of the specified object. Not all objects have a description.

public:
 virtual property System::String ^ Description { System::String ^ get(); };
public virtual string Description { get; }
public virtual string? Description { get; }
member this.Description : string
Public Overridable ReadOnly Property Description As String

Property Value

A description of the object's visual appearance to the user, or null if the object does not have a description.

Exceptions

The description for the control cannot be retrieved.

Remarks

This property describes the object's visual appearance to the user.

Notes to Inheritors

The default implementation returns the accessible object's description if the object wraps a system control; otherwise, it returns null. The description is typically used to provide greater context for low-vision or blind users. It can also be used for context searching or other applications. Servers need to support the Description property if the description is not obvious, or if it is redundant based on the object's Name, Role, State, and Value properties. For example, a button with "OK" does not need additional information, but a button that shows a picture of a cactus would. The Name, Role, and perhaps Help properties for the cactus button describe its purpose, but the Description property conveys information that is less tangible, like "A button that shows a picture of a cactus".
