## Discussion

Discussion An array of accessibility objects with which the text of this accessibility object is shared. In a multi-column document, for example, each column may be represented by a separate accessibility object. However, the text in the document may flow from one column to the other. You get the value of this attribute if you need to know with which accessibility object this accessibility object shares its text. This attribute is recommended for sets of accessibility objects that share text in a single window. (See kAXSharedCharacterRange for a related attribute.)
