Annotation

The user interface control (<uicontrol>) element represents a button, entry field, menu item, or other object that allows the user to control the interface. This could also include a menu or dialog. For example, use the <uicontrol> element inside a <menucascade> element when the menu item is nested, such as File New . This element is part of the DITA user interface domain, a special set of DITA elements designed to document user interface tasks, concepts and reference information.
