accessibilityLabel()

Declaration

func accessibilityLabel() -> String

Return Value

The description of the layout area.

Discussion

This method is the getter for the NSAccessibilityProtocol protocol’s accessibilityLabel property.

Do not include the control’s type in the label (for example, use Canvas, not Canvas Layout Area). If possible use a single word. To help ensure that accessibility clients such as VoiceOver read the label with the correct intonation, start this label with a capital letter. Do not put a period at the end. Always localize the label.
