Hi Bill,

The AXLayoutChanged notification is used to notify the AX client when an app'’s UI has changed. Currently, not many apps use it. 
You can find an example of it in Keynote, when giving a presentation with VoiceOver on.

For the hidden UI actions and announcement notification, the best way to test them is to make your own sample app and use the code from the WWDC 2013 slides.

Could someone point out one or two applications that use the new-in-Mavericks AXLayoutChanged notification (and the AXAnnouncementRequested notification), and tell me what hidden UI elements to look for? I want to test one of my applications that is supposed to respond when the target application's layout changes (alternate elements appear and default elements reappear).

I tried Mail and some other applications in which UI elements appear and disappear when I mouse over them, but I don't see the notifications being posted.
