Hide objects in accessible documents from screen readers

When generating PDF/UA files, we need to have special objects that are read by an internal system but ignored by screen readers. This cannot be achieved with the existing functionality.

It would be beneficial if we could configure reports so that specific objects inside the generated document are ignored by screen readers. For example, by setting a special value to the AccessibleRole property of a text box.

Hello,

Thanks for bringing this up.

We discussed this requirement with the engineering team and agreed that it makes sense to have granular control over the items included in an accessible document. Using the AccessibleRole property seems the correct approach, given that it supports expressions and can be evaluated according to the current data- or processing context.

The issue will is scheduled for implementation for the next major release of Telerik Reporting which is due in August. In case the fix is implemented earlier, it will be included with in the next product release. Since its status in the feedback portal will be changed, you'll get automatically notified.
