129 *@ATK_ROLE_REDUNDANT_OBJECT: The object is redundant with another object in the hierarchy, and is exposed for purely technical reasons. Objects of this role should normally be ignored by clients. @Since: ATK-1.11

132 * clients when navigating complex documents, it is not expected that ordinary GUI containers will
133 * always have ATK_ROLE_FORM. @Since: ATK-1.12.0
134 *@ATK_ROLE_LINK: The object is a hypertext anchor, i.e. a "link" in a
135 * hypertext document. Such objects are distinct from 'inline'
136 * content which may also use the Hypertext/Hyperlink interfaces
137 * to indicate the range/location within a text object where
138 * an inline or embedded object lies. @Since: ATK-1.12.1
139 *@ATK_ROLE_INPUT_METHOD_WINDOW: The object is a window or similar viewport
140 * which is used to allow composition or input of a 'complex character',

149 *@ATK_ROLE_COMMENT: An object found within a document and designed to present a comment, note, or other annotation. In some cases, this object might not be visible until activated. @Since: ATK-2.1.0
150 *@ATK_ROLE_LIST_BOX: A non-collapsible list of choices the user can select from. @Since: ATK-2.1.0
151 *@ATK_ROLE_GROUPING: A group of related widgets. This group typically has a label. @Since: ATK-2.1.0
152 *@ATK_ROLE_IMAGE_MAP: An image map object. Usually a graphic with multiple hotspots, where each hotspot can be activated resulting in the loading of another document or section of a document. @Since: ATK-2.1.0
153 *@ATK_ROLE_NOTIFICATION: A transitory object designed to present a message to the user, typically at the desktop level rather than inside a particular application. @Since: ATK-2.1.0
154 *@ATK_ROLE_INFO_BAR: An object designed to present a message to the user within an existing window. @Since: ATK-2.1.0
155 *@ATK_ROLE_LEVEL_BAR: A bar that serves as a level indicator to, for instance, show the strength of a password or the state of a battery. @Since: ATK-2.7.3

157 * dialog. @Since: ATK-2.12
158 *@ATK_ROLE_BLOCK_QUOTE: An object which contains a text section
159 * that is quoted from another source. @Since: ATK-2.12
160 *@ATK_ROLE_LAST_DEFINED: not a valid role, used for finding end of the enumeration
162 * Describes the role of an object
164 * These are the built-in enumerated roles that UI components can have in
165 * ATK. Other roles may be added at runtime, so an AtkRole >=
166 * ATK_ROLE_LAST_DEFINED is not necessarily an error.
