Accessibility Support
Many DevExpress WPF controls comply with WCAG 2.2 (Level AA), Section 508, and EN 301 549 standards. To learn more about how WPF controls satisfy these requirements, refer to the DevExpress Accessibility Conformance Report (ACR).
Limitations
The following table lists known TabControl limitations according to the WCAG 2.x standard:
WCAG 2.x Criterion | Exception Description |
|---|---|
2.1.1 Keyboard (Level A) | Users cannot close the opened tab from keyboard. As a workaround, you can call the DXTabControl.HideTabItem on a key press event. |
4.1.2 Name, Role, Value (Level A) | A TabControl header’s accessible information includes duplicated header label. |
Note
Accessibility features of your application depend on implementation (your use of TabControl API). Your application may not require or enable user actions listed above. The limitation list may also be incomplete. Test all required user functionality to ensure accessibility compliance.
