Utilize Data Editors with Accessibility Support

Data input controls with accessibility support are user interface components designed to capture user input, such as text fields, checkboxes, dropdowns, date pickers, and numeric fields, that can be used by anyone, regardless of physical or cognitive limitations. With assistive technologies like screen readers, voice input systems, and keyboard navigation, they ensure that individuals with disabilities or impairments can enter and manipulate data without obstruction. By adhering to accessibility standards like the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) and supporting technologies, these controls help developers deliver user-friendly interfaces that improve user experience for all, and help organizations meet legal and ethical accessibility obligations.

Several WinForms data editor collections include accessibility support, such as:

• DevExpress WinForms Data Editors (part of DevExpress WinForms) allows developers to create input forms that support screen readers and custom accessibility settings.
• ComponentOne WinForms Input and Editors (part of ComponentOne Studio WinForms by MESCIUS) lets you design accessible input fields that interact with assistive technologies.
• Telerik UI for WinForms Data Editors (part of Telerik UI for WinForms) offers input controls compliant with Microsoft Active Accessibility, Appium, and Section 508 best practices.
• Syncfusion Essential Studio Windows Forms Data Editors (part of Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise) are compliant with Section 508, WCAG, and WAI-ARIA guidelines.
