chempfling added a comment to D17936: Rewrite the front-end of docs.kde.org.

Hello @chempfling, I saw that you was involved with accessibility around KDE. I would love to get some feedback on the accessibility of this website http://docs.carlschwan.eu.

I already know about the accessibility problem with the language picker (I will change it), but I would love to get more feedback and improvement ideas to make the documentation more accessible.

Thanks a lot for your comment.
I consider that proper accessibility is one of the thing that is/was lacking in Elisa and should be taken for granted.

you are completly right.
A11y is important in enterprise sector. thats why i created T11074 its very needed and its already too long out of scope

It's on purpose they don't get focus as they should never interrupt you. We need to find a way to address this in some way without jeopardizing the default usecase.

chempfling added a comment to D21608: improve accessibility by providing metadata for UI elements.

an small thing we need to take care, is that also the current active element gets the focus. screenreaders react to the "focus:true" property to present the current active element.
in Kickoff this is an issue. I will test this here next couple of days.
Thanks!!! :).

In fact that was just improved/fixed yesterday in D21081!

Maybe it would be a good idea to merge all the ATK roles with the QT ones? So we could provice all needed roles?
there is stuff what might be nice for other places as well. like ATK_ROLE_ICON.
