I'm thinking about a couple of different options for UIA. One would be to use the Annotations Pattern Pattern: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/hh448769(v=vs.85).aspx Types: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/hh448743(v=vs.85).aspx This is closely related to the annotations proposal Microsoft made in 2014 https://www.w3.org/2014/04/annotation/submissions/Microsoft_Position_Paper_on_Annotations.pdf (I think there are more recent versions, but that's the one that I could find) Another would be to create a Hyperlink Pattern, which would have properties of Target and Type, and could be applied to any Control Type. Currently, we have a Link Control Type, which uses the Value Pattern to store the target. I've never found that to be a particularly elegant design. -----Original Message----- From: Gunderson, Jon R [mailto:jongund@illinois.edu] Sent: Friday, February 12, 2016 1:24 PM To: Joanmarie Diggs <jdiggs@igalia.com>; Joseph Scheuhammer <clown@alum.mit.edu> Cc: ARIA Working Group <public-aria@w3.org>; public-dpub-accessibility@w3.org Subject: RE: Initial draft of aria-linktype How does aria-linktype map to the accessibility APIs.
