(Level A) 17:24:12 JA: Bottom line is that 1.11.1 has remained unchanged. 17:26:49 Group talking about moving 1.11.1 to level AA. 17:27:11 KFord: I don't want to block on tablke headers. 17:27:19 The wording "based on the user's position in content" is not used elsewhere, and is somewhat vague, but not a show-stopper. 17:29:25 Resolved: 1.11.1 text staying the same. Level moving to AA. 17:32:50 scribe: jallan 17:33:27 kelly: reviews 1.11.2...its a mess. why is this needed, what is the accessibility case 17:34:31 kf: if we didn't have this, who would it deny access to. 17:35:39 JA: I can see the doc type from the status bar 17:35:55 kf: how would folks feel about deleting 1.11.2 17:35:59 KF: The browser should expose the status bar, but that is covered elsewhere 17:36:32 Greg: I'm not sure that opening a window or tab is the problem that it once was. 17:36:38 gl: title covered by something else. not convinced that opening in new window or tab is not as big a problem as it used to be. 17:37:06 Now to Kim: opening in a new window is one of the big complaints I hear. 17:37:53 ... but this SC is very different from what my users want 17:38:00 KFord: Kim can you clarify this. 17:38:12 kp: how to open content in a new window or tab 17:38:23 Kim: My users want to know how to opena link in a new window. 17:38:36 scribe: kford 17:38:50 Kim: My users want to control this, if you can do that then their needs would be covered. 17:39:01 scribe: jallan 17:39:50 kf: kim, explain accessibility reason for having this, 17:40:20 kp: can't see two tabs at the same time. easy to switch or see two windows at the same time. 17:41:14 kf: IE and FF have settings for controlling open of links in new tabs or windows 17:42:14 kp: functionality is there, but it needs to be attached to the keyboard 17:43:03 ja: seems to be more of an education issue rather than functionality issue. 17:43:46 kf: control-enter opens in new tab, control-shift-enter opens in new window 17:44:31 kp: mouseless browsing numbers with a control to open in a new tab would work 17:47:13 kf: we have a SC for direct selection of links, but do we need another SC for this new functionality 17:47:37 kp: after checking...all functionality is there. its just education 17:47:50 kf: 1.11.2 should be deleted 17:47:58 scribe: kford 17:48:09 Resolved: group deleting 1.11.2 17:49:39 Issue: In UAAG next address need to be able to directly activate a link and control target of the link opening i.e. new window, new tab for speech users. 17:49:39 Created ISSUE-93 - In UAAG next address need to be able to directly activate a link and control target of the link opening i.e. new window, new tab for speech users. ; please complete additional details at http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/tracker/issues/93/edit . 17:49:54 close action-647 17:49:54 ACTION-647 Write a scoping NOTE about Guideline 4.1 closed 17:50:14 close action-467 17:50:14 ACTION-467 Revise 1.11.1 and 1.11.2 make proposal to the group closed 17:50:50 Action: JS to delete 1.11.2 from document after group consensus. 17:50:50 Created ACTION-734 - Delete 1.11.2 from document after group consensus.

"Action-630 revised" taken up [from JAllan] 17:51:33 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ua/2012AprJun/0088.html 17:52:10 close action-467 17:52:10 ACTION-467 Revise 1.11.1 and 1.11.2 make proposal to the group closed 17:52:43 Minor editorial: change "are true" to "occur" or the like. 17:52:47 close action-734 complete 17:53:05 action-734 complete 17:53:14 close action-734 17:53:14 ACTION-734 Delete 1.11.2 from document after group consensus. closed 17:56:02 How about "The point of regard remains within the visible portion of the viewport, and where possible at the same location within the viewport, when any or all of the following occur..." 17:57:27 The way I think of point of regard is it's whichever changed most recently: the focus location, or selection, or find results, or content at the leading edge of the viewport. 17:59:07 Consider replacing "point of regard" with "area of regard" to acknowledge the fact that it's usually not just a point but a region. 17:59:56 New definition: 17:59:58 point of regard 17:59:59 The point of regard is the portion of rendered content that the user 18:00:01 is presumed to be viewing. The dimensions of the point of regard may 18:00:02 vary. For example, it may be a two-dimensional area (e.g. content 18:00:04 rendered through a two-dimensional graphical viewport), or a point 18:00:06 (e.g. a moment during an audio rendering or a cursor position in a 18:00:07 graphical rendering), or a range of text (e.g. focused text). The 18:00:09 point of regard is almost always within the viewport, but it may 18:00:10 exceed the spatial or temporal dimensions of the viewport (see the 18:00:12 definition of rendered content for more information about viewport 18:00:13 dimensions). 18:00:15 The point of regard may also refer to a particular moment in time for 18:00:17 content that changes over time (e.g. an audio-only presentation). 18:00:19 User agents may determine the point of regard in a number of ways, 18:00:21 including, based on viewport position in content, keyboard focus, and 18:00:23 selection. The stability of the point of regard is addressed by 1.8.z 18:01:29 What we really mean might be closer to "Where possible, the *entire* point of regard remains within the visible portion of the viewport, and at the same location within the viewport, when any or all of the following occur..."? 18:02:39 how do we communicate these subtleties to the poor developer trying to figure out what we mean? 18:03:03 Group continuing to discuss this topic. 18:06:35 leading edge, selected or focused, or whatever changed last should remain in the viewport 18:08:41 1.8.z Maintain Point of Regard: The point of regard remains at the 18:08:43 same relative location within the visible portion of the viewport when 18:08:45 any or all of the following are true: 18:08:46 (a) the viewport is resized; or 18:08:48 (b) the zoom/scale on the viewport is changed; or 18:08:50 (c) the formatting of some or all of the content changes (e.g. font or 18:08:51 text size, causing content to change height and/or rewrap). 18:08:53 UNLESS there is focused or selected content INSIDE the pre-zoomed 18:08:55 viewport, in which case the focused/selected content remains in the 18:08:56 post-zoom viewport. 18:09:02 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ua/2012AprJun/0088.html 18:11:18 "To the extent possible, the point of regard remains visible and at the same location within the viewport when the viewport is resized, content is zoomed or scaled, or formatting of content changes." 18:12:09 rrsagent, make minutes 18:12:09 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2012/05/31-ua-minutes.html kford 18:12:39 Present: Greg, Jim, Kim, Jeanne 18:13:00 Regrets: Mark, Simon, Jan 18:13:10 rrsagent, make minutes: 18:13:10 I'm logging.

Try /msg RRSAgent help 18:13:19 rrsagent, make minutes 18:13:19 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2012/05/31-ua-minutes.html kford 18:13:32 Jeanne: I like Greg's solution. 18:13:40 Kim: I like it as well. 18:13:42 "The point of regard remains within the visible portion of the viewport, and at the same location within the viewport, when the viewport is resized, content is zoomed or scaled, or formatting of content changes." We could relegate to the IER the recommendation of what to do when viewpoint can no longer show the the entire point of regard. 18:15:38 "To the extent possible, the point of regard remains visible and at the same location within the viewport when the viewport is resized, content is zoomed or scaled, or formatting of content changes." 18:15:57 1.8.z Maintain Point of Regard: 18:16:41 Intent: It can be disorienting and confusing when a user changes the 18:16:43 viewport size or zooms the content and the current content shifts out 18:16:44 of the viewport causing different content on the same page to be 18:16:46 displayed in the viewport. Just as the location in audio does not 18:16:47 change when the user increases the volume, the current point of regard 18:16:49 should not change when the user changes the size of the window or 18:16:51 zooms the content. 18:16:53 Starting with the base assumption that regardless of other items that 18:16:54 may have focus, or be selected, the current viewport is that 18:16:56 information which is visible to the user within the bounds of the user 18:16:57 agent content area. When any of the SC conditions are met, the user 18:16:59 agent should maintain the same top-left (top-right for RTL) corner 18:17:01 UNLESS there is focused or selected content INSIDE the pre-zoomed 18:17:03 viewport, in which case the focused/selected content remains in the 18:17:04 post-zoom viewport. {repeated for emphasis} 18:17:06 Note: "Content" and "selected" are used because there may be cases 18:17:08 where the viewport is zooming into just part of an element (e.g. if I 18:17:09 select a few words of text that are part of a

and zoom in) 18:17:11 Examples of Success Criterion 1.8.z 18:17:13 -- Jorge is a low vision user. While viewing a webpage he sees a 18:17:15 picture with a caption that is too small to read. He highlights the 18:17:17 caption, then uses the browsers zoom feature to increase the size of 18:17:19 the content so he can read the caption. Through the zooming process 18:17:20 the highlighted caption remains in the viewport, allowing Jorge to 18:17:22 keep oriented on the caption and begin reading it when the appropriate 18:17:24 content size is reached. 18:17:26 Later while reading on a page, Jorge finds some text that is too large 18:17:28 to read. The beginning of the large text is at the top of the bowser 18:17:29 content area. He uses the zoom feature to make the content smaller. 18:17:31 the text is reduced to a confortable reading size and the beginning of 18:17:33 the text remains at the top of the browser window. 18:17:34 -- Melissa has a distraction disorder. She is doing research for 18:17:36 school. She scrolls the content so the relevant section heading the 18:17:38 top line of the browser. She resizes the browser so she can see her 18:17:40 notes and the browser at the same time. After resizing the browser the 18:17:41 heading is still the top line of the viewport. 18:17:43 -- Xu has a reading disability. He needs only the text on a page to be 18:17:45 larger. He is reading a page with footnotes that are too small to 18:17:47 read. Xu places the footnote at the top of the browser, and using the 18:17:49 increase font-size feature, he increases the font-size of the text on 18:17:51 the page. The footnotes stay on the top of the viewport. 18:21:03 I'd add that in addition to being disorienting and confusing, the user may be forced to expend considerable time and effort finding and navigating back to the place where they were working. 18:21:22 Users may have to expend considerable time an effort to re-navigate back to their previous point of regard. 18:21:44 First sentence needs editing, as it runs on now. 18:22:49 It could start "User can be confused and disoriented when the area where they are working suddenly shifts outside the visible region of the viewport... In addition, the user may be forced..." 18:23:48 close Action-630 18:23:49 ACTION-630 Propose SC on maintaining point of regard when scaling the page closed 18:24:09 zakim, close item 3 18:24:09 agendum 3, Action-630 revised, closed 18:24:10 I see 3 items remaining on the agenda; the next one is 18:24:10 1.

"Action-733: definition of shortcut" taken up [from JAllan] 18:24:38 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ua/2012AprJun/0080.html 18:26:01 proposed: 18:26:05 *shortcut* 18:26:07 A command that's tied to a particular UI control or application 18:26:09 function, allowing the user to navigate to or activate the control or 18:26:11 function without traversing any intervening controls. A shortcut is 18:26:12 modality independent, meaning it is accessible by any input method (e.g. 18:26:14 keyboard, mouse, speech, touch or gesture). Also see Modality 18:26:16 Independence Principle. 18:26:29 Shortcut definition* 18:26:30 *keyboard command (keyboard binding, keyboard shortcut or accelerator keys)* 18:26:32 A key or set of keys that are tied to a particular UI control or 18:26:33 application function, allowing the user to navigate to or activate the 18:26:35 control or function without traversing any intervening controls (e.g. 18:26:37 "ctrl"+"S" to save a document). It is sometimes useful to distinguish 18:26:38 keyboard commands that are associated with controls that are rendered in 18:26:40 the current context (e.g. "alt"+"D" to move focus to the address bar) 18:26:42 from those that may be able to activate program functionality that is 18:26:43 not associated with any currently rendered controls (e.g. "F1" to open 18:26:45 the Help system). Keyboard commands help users accelerate their 18:26:46 selections. Also see Shortcut. 18:31:21 GL: Trying to underand exactly what is meant by command. 18:31:45 Kim: A command is the act of communicating with a computer. 18:34:35 More discussion around this.
