  • ariaLandmark

    With this property you can define Accessible Rich Internet Applications (ARIA) landmarks for container UI elements Group, Tray, Panel, PanelStack, ScrollContainer, and TransparentContainer. You select the UI element function to enable users to navigate with a screen reader within your application. If you set the ariaLandmark property, ARIA landmarks are added to an HTML element by the role attribute.

  • isLayoutContainer

    Specifies whether the TransparentContainer functions as a layout container.

    • isLayoutContainer=true:

      The container is used for laying out the view, it does not have any semantic properties. In this case a defaultButton cannot be set, the focus cannot be set on the container, users cannot navigate to the container using the tab key, and in accessibility mode the container cannot be read by a screen reader.

    • isLayoutContainer=false:

      The container is used for the layout and represents a semantic grouping, for instance, it arranges labels and input fields in a form.

      In this case the TransparentContainer can be navigated to using the tab key, and it can also be read in accessibility mode, provided the relevant accessibility properties are set (see TransparentContainer). You can set a default button using the defaultButtonId property.

  • labeledBy

    ID specification of the SectionHeader. This property is used for non-layout containers (isLayoutContainer = false), to link a SectionHeader as the title control to this container. The link between an existing SectionHeader and a TransparentContainer using labeledBy is relevant for Accessibility.

  • explanation

    Help text displayed when the help mode is activated. This property can be personalized by administrators. More information: Explanation Property
