Distance readings in GFL (regular) #124

Closed briannatomlinson closed 5 years ago

briannatomlinson commented 5 years ago

@terracoda -- in today's research meeting with @emily-phet , I mentioned getting some weird slider values in our first participant interview (on 10/26) with GFL.

When moving the masses around, most values read normally but then it will read out something like "1.799999999... meter mark". Not sure if this is still an issue? Here's a demo video of it happening. I can email the participant video to you, if that's helpful, too.

I didn't notice this on the new GFL:B link that I just got when I was going through it with a screen reader. We'll be using for interviews this week with sighted students so not as important there.

Still wanted to bring it up, but wanted to check with you first!

Thanks @briannatomlinson this bug is already noted here https://github.com/phetsims/gravity-force-lab/issues/118.

I'll close this issue as it is a duplicate and will be address directly in the gravity force lab repo.
