Purpose of Subroles


  • Subject: Purpose of Subroles

In theory you could have a widget with role "button" and subrole "Crazy Animation Button". This way, a screen reader could treat the widget like a button, but announce it as a "Crazy Animation Button".

"Great question! Additionally, why would you use a sub role instead of
just defining a custom role?
