Hi Drake, I don't know of an explicit field in atk/AT-SPI for exposing sort order on a widget such as a tree. However, it seems like the weakly-typed object attributes feature might work here for someone wishing to expose that information. See the following two links:
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/atk/AtkObject.html#atk-object-get-attributes http://www.gnome.org/~billh/at-spi-idl/html/classAccessibility_1_1Accessible.html#a8 What I don't know is if there is some established convention for what the name should be on the attribute or what enumeration should be used for the value. What we want to avoid is a proliferation of synonyms across applications and toolkits. For instance, "sortorder:ascending", "sort-order:forward", "order:down", and all possible permutations. The AT-SPI link above suggest the use of attributes names/values from already established namespaces such as W3C specs and the Dublin Core. If others agree that object attributes are the way to go, then following an established standard is the right thing to do here.
