Qt Quick Controls Button: Unable to override Accessible.role

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      In the code below, even though we give the Button the role of "Accessible.RadioButton", it is still detected by the OS as a "regular" Button (as reported by Visual UIA Verify, Microsoft Narrator, or macOS VoiceOver).

      In contrast, the role is correctly applied to the Rectangle (see screenshot)

      import QtQuick 2.15
import QtQuick.Window 2.15
import QtQuick.Controls 2.15

Window {
    width: 400
    height: 300
    visible: true
    title: qsTr("Accessibility Role Study")

    Column {
        Button {
            text: "Button"
            Accessible.role: Accessible.RadioButton
        }
        Rectangle {
            objectName: "Rectangle"
            width: 100
            height: 50
            color: "yellow"
            Accessible.role: Accessible.RadioButton
        }
    }
}
