Known Implementations

AtspiComponent is implemented by AtspiAccessible.

Description

The Component interface is implemented by objects which occupy on-screen space, e.g. objects which have onscreen visual representations. The methods in Component allow clients to identify where the objects lie in the onscreen coordinate system, their relative size, stacking order, and position. It also provides a mechanism whereby keyboard focus may be transferred to specific user interface elements programmatically. This is a 2D API. Coordinates of 3D objects are projected into the 2-dimensional screen view for purposes of this interface.
