System.Enum
The operating system and accessibility server applications generate accessibility events in response to changes in the user interface.
This enumeration is used by and .
For more information about the accessibility application, search for "Microsoft Active Accessibility" in the MSDN Library.
Specifies events that are reported by accessible applications.
Field
System.Windows.Forms.AccessibleEvents
An object's property changed. Server applications send the event for their accessible objects.

Field
System.Windows.Forms.AccessibleEvents
An object was created. The operating system sends the event for the following user interface elements: caret, header control, list view control, tab control, toolbar control, tree view control, and window object. Server applications send this event for their accessible objects. Servers must send this event for all an object's child objects before sending the event for the parent object. Servers must ensure that all child objects are fully created and ready to accept calls from clients when the parent object sends the event.

Field
System.Windows.Forms.AccessibleEvents
An object's property changed. The system sends this event for dialog boxes. Server applications send this event for their accessible objects. Therefore, server applications do not need to send this event for the child objects. Hidden objects have a state of , and shown objects do not. Events of type AccessibleEvents.Hide indicate that a state of has been set. Therefore, servers do not need to send the AccessibleEvents.StateChange event in this case.

Field
System.Windows.Forms.AccessibleEvents
An object was destroyed. The system sends this event for the following user interface elements: caret, header control, list view control, tab control, toolbar control, tree view control, and window object. Server applications send this event for their accessible objects. This event may or may not be sent for child objects. However, clients can conclude that all the children of an object have been destroyed when the parent object sends this event.

Field
System.Windows.Forms.AccessibleEvents
An object has received the keyboard focus. The system sends this event for the following user interface elements: list view control, menu bar, shortcut menu, switch window, tab control, tree view control, and window object. Server applications send this event for their accessible objects.

Field
System.Windows.Forms.AccessibleEvents
An object is hidden. The system sends the event for the following user interface elements: caret and cursor. Server applications send the event for their accessible objects. When the event is generated for a parent object, all child objects have already been hidden. Therefore, server applications do not need to send the event for the child objects. The system does not send the event consistently.

2.0.0.0
Field
System.Windows.Forms.AccessibleEvents
An object has changed location, shape, or size. The system sends this event for the following user interface elements: caret and window object. Server applications send this event for their accessible objects. This event is generated in response to the top-level object within the object hierarchy that has changed, not for any children it might contain. For example, if the user resizes a window, the system sends this notification for the window, but not for the menu bar, title bar, scroll bars, or other objects that have also changed. The system does not send this event for every non-floating child window when the parent moves. However, if an application explicitly resizes child windows as a result of being resized, the system sends multiple events for the resized children. If an object's property is set to , servers should send a location change event whenever the object changes location. If an object does not have this state, servers should raise this event when the object moves relative to its parent.

A container object has added, removed, or reordered its children. The system sends this event for the following user interface elements: header control, list view control, toolbar control, and window object. Server applications send this event as appropriate for their accessible objects. This event is also sent by a parent window when the z order for the child windows changes.

Field

1.0.5000.0
2.0.0.0
Field
System.Windows.Forms.AccessibleEvents
An item within a container object was added to the selection. The system sends this event for the following user interface elements: list box, list view control, and tree view control.

Field
System.Windows.Forms.AccessibleEvents
Numerous selection changes occurred within a container object. The system sends this event for list boxes. Server applications send this event for their accessible objects. This event can be sent when the selected items within a control have changed substantially. This event informs the client that many selection changes have occurred. This is preferable to sending several SelectionAdd or SelectionRemove events.

Field
System.Windows.Forms.AccessibleEvents
A hidden object is being shown. The system sends this event for the following user interface elements: caret, cursor, and window object. Server applications send this event for their accessible objects. Clients can conclude that, when this event is sent by a parent object, all child objects have already been displayed. Therefore, server applications do not need to send this event for the child objects.

Field

An object's state has changed. The system sends the event for the following user interface elements: check box, combo box, header control, push button, radio button, scroll bar, toolbar control, tree view control, up-down control, and window object. Server applications send the event for their accessible objects. For example, a state change can occur when a button object has been pressed or released, or when an object is being enabled or disabled. The system does not send the event consistently.
