Open caseyjhol opened 5 years ago
What is that site? If I am blind how do i know red from green? When I open that site it just says Neptunium Neptunium. What is it? Users of screen readers don't Hover over anything!
@tapper82 Are you not familiar with the concept of a reduced test case? I've updated the colors to hopefully make it a bit clearer. Are you implying that users who are only partially visually impaired do not use screen readers? Am I to believe NVDA is strictly for users who do not use a mouse?
Here I think we need suport from some sighted people. Maybe @Qchristensen or @feerrenrut can help here.
@caseyjhol of course NVDA is also meat to allow users to use the mouse. It's just that this test case is not very intuitive for blind users. In which browser did you reproduce this?
@Adriani90 When I initially posted, I had tested in Firefox 66. I've also tested in Firefox 75.0. I tested in Chrome also, but hovering over the text in either box doesn't work.
This may be clear now to @caseyjhol but for the benefit of anyone else wondering about the reaction from @tapper82
While NVDA is also for mouse users, low vision users, and fully sighted users (often A11y testers). Many of the developers who contribute code to NVDA or fix bugs are blind, and will not be able to work on an issue when it is described in a visual way. In some cases a problem truly requires sight, or the use of the mouse, but most issues can be reproduced with the use of the keyboard. If not it is very useful to mention that it ONLY affects the mouse. Because most NVDA developers are blind, it is probably clear that blind friendly issue descriptions are more likely to get attention. More so, well described visual issues can often be fixed by blind developers.
This issue / test case could certainly be described better.
This issue / test case could certainly be described better. Without delving into it, it looks like this issue is related to translate3d
.
Here is a simpler test case: https://codepen.io/reefturner/full/vYLXaOq
Navigating by keyboard, pressing down arrow, you will hear something like:
• blue option 1
• blue option 2
out of list list with 2 items • red option 1
• red option 2
Hover the mouse over "blue option 1" and it is spoken. Hovering the mouse over "red option 1", and nothing is spoken by NVDA
None of the bullets can be read with the mouse.
Not much to add except that I can reproduce the same as @feerrenrut using the same build of Firefox, and a very slightly newer build of Chrome: Version 83.0.4103.116 (Official Build) (64-bit)
Would someone with some sight be able to re-test this in latest Firefox release and report whether the problem persists? The recent re-architecture fixed a lot of bugs related to transforms, so this may well be fixed now.
Tested in firefox:
In chrome:
In Chrome, moving the mouse physically does not read any of the options.
Steps to reproduce:
Actual behavior:
Text in the black box is read aloud. Text in the red box is not.
Expected behavior:
Text in the red box should also be read aloud.
