SbAccessibilityCaptionFontSizePercentage

Enum for possible closed captioning font size percentages.

Values

  • kSbAccessibilityCaptionFontSizePercentage25
  • kSbAccessibilityCaptionFontSizePercentage50
  • kSbAccessibilityCaptionFontSizePercentage75
  • kSbAccessibilityCaptionFontSizePercentage100
  • kSbAccessibilityCaptionFontSizePercentage125

  • kSbAccessibilityCaptionFontSizePercentage300

SbAccessibilityCaptionOpacityPercentage

Enum for possible closed captioning opacity percentages.

Values

  • kSbAccessibilityCaptionOpacityPercentage0
  • kSbAccessibilityCaptionOpacityPercentage25
  • kSbAccessibilityCaptionOpacityPercentage50
  • kSbAccessibilityCaptionOpacityPercentage75
  • kSbAccessibilityCaptionOpacityPercentage100

SbAccessibilityCaptionState

Enum for possible states of closed captioning properties.

Values

  • kSbAccessibilityCaptionStateUnsupported

    The property is not supported by the system. The application should provide a way to set this property, otherwise it will not be changeable. For any given closed captioning property, if its corresponding state property has a value of kSbAccessibilityCaptionStateUnsupported, then its own value is undefined. For example, if SbAccessibilityCaptionColor::background_color_state has a value of kSbAccessibilityCaptionStateUnsupported, then the value of SbAccessibilityCaptionColor::background_color is undefined.

  • kSbAccessibilityCaptionStateUnset

    The property is supported by the system, but the user has not set it. The application should provide a default setting for the property to handle this case.

  • kSbAccessibilityCaptionStateSet

    The user has set this property as a system default, meaning that it should take priority over app defaults. If SbAccessibilityCaptionSettings.supportsOverride contains true, this value should be interpreted as explicitly saying "do not override." If it contains false, it is up to the application to interpret any additional meaning of this value.

  • kSbAccessibilityCaptionStateOverride

    This property should take priority over everything but application-level overrides, including video caption data. If SbAccessibilityCaptionSettings.supportsOverride contains false, then no fields of SbAccessibilityCaptionSettings will ever contain this value.

Structs

SbAccessibilityCaptionSettings

A group of settings related to system-level closed captioning settings, for platforms that expose closed captioning settings.

Members

  • SbAccessibilityCaptionColor background_color
  • SbAccessibilityCaptionState background_color_state
  • SbAccessibilityCaptionOpacityPercentage background_opacity
  • SbAccessibilityCaptionState background_opacity_state
  • SbAccessibilityCaptionCharacterEdgeStyle character_edge_style
  • SbAccessibilityCaptionState character_edge_style_state
  • SbAccessibilityCaptionColor font_color
  • SbAccessibilityCaptionState font_color_state
  • SbAccessibilityCaptionFontFamily font_family
  • SbAccessibilityCaptionState font_family_state
  • SbAccessibilityCaptionOpacityPercentage font_opacity
  • SbAccessibilityCaptionState font_opacity_state
  • SbAccessibilityCaptionFontSizePercentage font_size
  • SbAccessibilityCaptionState font_size_state
  • SbAccessibilityCaptionColor window_color
  • SbAccessibilityCaptionState window_color_state
  • SbAccessibilityCaptionOpacityPercentage window_opacity
  • SbAccessibilityCaptionState window_opacity_state

  • bool is_enabled

    The is_enabled attribute determines if the user has chosen to enable closed captions on their system.

  • bool supports_is_enabled

    Some platforms support enabling or disabling captions, some support reading whether they are enabled from the system settings, and others support neither. As a result, there are separate checks for getting and setting the value that is contained in the is_enabled attribute. Modifying the attribute via SbAccessibilitySetCaptionsEnabled will change the setting system-wide. Attempting to read is_enabled when the value of supports_is_enabled is false will always return false. Attempting to set is_enabled via SbAccessibilitySetCaptionsEnabled when the value of supports_set_enabled is false will fail silently.

  • bool supports_set_enabled

  • bool supports_override

    Some platforms may specify that when setting a property, it should override data from video streams and application settings (unless the application has its own overrides). Depending on whether this attribute contains true or false, the values of SbAccessibilityCaptionState should be interpreted differently.

SbAccessibilityDisplaySettings

Members

  • bool has_high_contrast_text_setting

    Whether this platform has a system setting for high contrast text or not.

  • bool is_high_contrast_text_enabled

    Whether the high contrast text setting is enabled or not.

SbAccessibilityTextToSpeechSettings

A group of settings related to text-to-speech functionality, for platforms that expose system settings for text-to-speech.

Members

  • bool has_text_to_speech_setting

    Whether this platform has a system setting for text-to-speech or not.

  • bool is_text_to_speech_enabled

    Whether the text-to-speech setting is enabled or not. This setting is only valid if has_text_to_speech_setting is set to true.

Functions

SbAccessibilityGetCaptionSettings

Get the platform's settings for system-level closed captions. This function returns false if caption_settings is NULL or if it is not zero-initialized.

caption_settings: A pointer to a zero-initialized SbAccessibilityTextToSpeechSettings struct.

Declaration

bool SbAccessibilityGetCaptionSettings(SbAccessibilityCaptionSettings *caption_settings)

SbAccessibilityGetDisplaySettings

Get the platform settings related to high contrast text. This function returns false if out_settings is NULL or if it is not zero-initialized.

out_settings: A pointer to a zero-initialized SbAccessibilityDisplaySettings* struct.

Declaration

bool SbAccessibilityGetDisplaySettings(SbAccessibilityDisplaySettings *out_settings)

SbAccessibilityGetTextToSpeechSettings

Get the platform settings related to the text-to-speech accessibility feature. This function returns false if out_settings is NULL or if it is not zero- initialized.

out_settings: A pointer to a zero-initialized SbAccessibilityTextToSpeechSettings struct.

Declaration

bool SbAccessibilityGetTextToSpeechSettings(SbAccessibilityTextToSpeechSettings *out_settings)

SbAccessibilitySetCaptionsEnabled

Modifies whether closed captions are enabled at a system level. This function returns false if this feature is not supported by the platform, or if changing the setting is unsuccessful. This function will modify the setting system-wide.

enabled: A boolean indicating whether captions should be turned on (true) or off (false).

Declaration

bool SbAccessibilitySetCaptionsEnabled(bool enabled)
