In my further mucking around with a small app I call Chatterbox, I came
across a question: How should we represent captions for dialog boxes?
Consider a dialog with the title "Save file". It contains three buttons,
yes, NO, and Cancel. The text above these buttons is something like "Would
you like to save the changes?".
Gail currently represents this dialog as an object of type ATK_ROLE_DIALOG
with a name of "Save File". But, how do we give the AT a hint that the
text "Would you like to save the changes?" is the caption of the
dialog? It would seem that relations would be the right answer, but there
is no such relation for "caption_for" and "captioned_by". Should we add
them, or am I missing something?
Marc.
