Created attachment 184109 [details] The example documents A11Y UI in Word 2019 and Writer This is a followup to bug 143311 A new image property "Decorative" was added to the UI for A11Y purposes. Now when enabled, this does not disable the Description text box which is normally used to provide an accessible description of the image. Disabling would make sense since Decorative attribute means it should not be announced by screen readers in PDF files, so why bother providing it? This is also what Word does, and providing a Description to a Decorative image confuses Word, so this is also generating an interop issue. 1, Open attachment 173503 [details] 2, Open the Properties dialog of the butterfly image 3, On the Options tab notice the Decorative checkbox is checked (good), and the Description can be edited. Enter something. 4, Save the file as DOCX, open it in Word 2019 (this is a new feature in that version, older ones don't support it yet). In Word the added Description is visible, and the Mark as editable box is unchecked, while it is checked in Writer.
