2.11.7

this is the current wording in the draft.

jr: need dfn for "Timebase", "continuous scale, "relative time units"

<scribe> ACTION: markH to write definitions for "Timebase", "continuous scale, "relative time units" related to 2.11.7 [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2012/01/05-ua-minutes.html#action02]

<trackbot> Sorry, couldn't find user - markH

<scribe> ACTION: mark to write definitions for "Timebase", "continuous scale, "relative time units" related to 2.11.7 [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2012/01/05-ua-minutes.html#action03]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-699 - Write definitions for "Timebase", "continuous scale, "relative time units" related to 2.11.7 [on Markku Hakkinen - due 2012-01-12].

discussion of time position, and continuous time scale.

mh: user is limited by granularity of the interface on the continuous time scale.

jr: we need to define our scale better. saying that it depends on the UI (frame, tenth of second, 10 seconds, etc.) where is the accessibility criteria?

gl: granularity should be "reasonable"

jr: arbitrary units could be gotten from WCAG20 2.2.1

<Jan> http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG/#time-limits

jr: and 2.2.2
... interesting that WCAG has time of 5 seconds, UAAG has timing of 3 seconds

mh: caption on screen length...as long as speech lasts or until next instance of speech

gl: base it on type of media, high speed camera work.

mh: stick with continuous time scale, but may depend on the media.

setting of time scale 1-10, or 1-100, or 1-500. youtube does 10% increments from the keyboard

kp: speech users need more granularity.

mh: as fine a granularity as supported by the technology

close for now, more discussion when mark comes back with definitions.

UAWG SCs needing attention: 2.1.6 and 3.4.2 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ua/2012JanMar/0003.html

2.11.x review time based media Action-643

2.11.x Review Time-Based Media

The user can request that a predefined interval of recently played audio, video, or animation be repeated. (Level AA)

Intent:

Users with sensory, cognitive or attentional impairments may find it difficult to understand or follow time-based media, especially if distracted by environmental visual or auditory events. This success criteria allows users to review recently played content that may have been missed or not fully understood by providing a single action that resets the playback position by a predefined...

scribe: interval and resumes playback.

jr and gl: what is predefined?

<Greg> Clarify whether interval can be defined by developer, user, or either OK.

mh: to review Daisy spec. to see if timing is configurable. or see clarity of 'configurable'

gl: and others...this is a common feature in many players.

jr: granularity. Media accessibility requirements from PF Media Accessibility User Requirements

http://www.w3.org/TR/media-accessibility-reqs

could reference the above for granularity

gl: concerned about failing players for not meeting UAAG defined interval.

kp: need robust intent to explain some of the use cases

<Jan> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ua/2012JanMar/0003.html

2.1.6 and 3.4.2

jr: combined these to make 1 SC removing 3.4.2

<Jan> http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/2011/ED-IMPLEMENTING-UAAG20-20111227/#sc-342

<Jan> http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/2011/ED-IMPLEMENTING-UAAG20-20111227/#sc-241

<Jan> oops...

<Jan> http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/2011/ED-IMPLEMENTING-UAAG20-20111227/#sc-214

gl: need to exempt have the status bar change as a link gets focus.
... transient presentation of information needs to be considered

<Jan> 2.1.6 Separate Selection from Activation (former 2.1.4): The user can specify that selection is separate from activation (e.g. navigating through a set of radio buttons without changing which is the active/selected option). (Level A)

<Jan> 3.4.2 Avoid Side Effects of Navigation [former 1.9.1, before that 3.11.11, changed]: The user can move the keyboard focus without causing the user agent to take any further action, other than the presentation of information (e.g. scrolling or pop-ups that do not change the focus or selection). (Level A)

jr: is combining ok

<Greg> I agree it's possible in concept to combine those two, as changing focus could be considered a side effect of navigation.

ja, gl, mh, kp all ok with combining

<Jan> ACTION: JR to Continue to work on the combined 2.1.6 Navigation Without Side Effects to make it clear that some transient side effects are ok [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2012/01/05-ua-minutes.html#action04]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-700 - Continue to work on the combined 2.1.6 Navigation Without Side Effects to make it clear that some transient side effects are ok [on Jan Richards - due 2012-01-12].

<Jan> http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/2011/ED-UAAG20-20111227/#sc-531

<jeanne> http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/work/wiki/Main_Page

http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/work/wiki/User_Agent_issues_effecting_A11y

<Greg> Jan suggests that 5.3.1 (document accessibility features) would cover making sure accesskey works correctly.

jr: add a more specific list to 5.3.1 call out bugs that affect accessibility

<Greg> Greg notes that's only true of the HTML spec is specific enough about behavior.

<Greg> HTML4 spec *does* require the focus to be moved when the user presses an accesskey ("Pressing an access key assigned to an element gives focus to the element. The action that occurs when an element receives focus depends on the element.") So the behaviors of Webkit-based browsers (e.g. Chrome and Safari) fail to implement it as spec'd.

tab and enter should reset the dom pointer

discussion basic functionality in browsers that are broken...in page link, anchors for form control @id

jr: inpage links should move keyboard focus and the subsequent tabs should take the user to the next available link after the named anchor
