Setting the alternate (alt) text for a button symbol or instance
Alternate (alt) text appears on or near an image placeholder while an image is downloading from
the web or in place of an image if it fails to download. It also replaces graphics if the user has the
browser set to refrain from displaying images. Alt text can be a symbol- or instance-level button
property. You can set alternate text for a button symbol or instance in the Property inspector.
Tip: Applications that assist the visually impaired audibly read the alternate text for graphics
on web pages in a browser. For your alternate text, use concise, meaningful descriptions of
graphical elements.
