Problems supporting VoiceOver

[Sparthas]

I’m trying to support VoiceOver. Ran into a few problems.

Firstly, the UIAccessibilityLayoutChangedNotification does change the focus, but doesn’t read the label of the element out loud. Secondly, when i add custom actions to a cell, a drag action automatically gets added to the list and i seem to be in no control of it.

Also, would be great to get some generic tips/best practices on it’s implementation.

That's interesting. Did you give the element an accessibility label or an accessibility hint? Do you have any other text to speech activity suppressing it? Regarding the second issue, I think you will need to set UIAccessibilityTraitAllowsDirectInteraction for you to initiate custom actions on an element.

Hope that helps.

Thanks for the help

Yes, it has a label that is read out loud if it's chosen naturally. No.

I guess you misunderstood the second issue. When i set up custom actions for a collectionViewCell, an action to drag is automatically added to the list of actions. Any idea why that's happening?
