Kim: M-numbered techiques from original assignments
15:08:05 [Detlev]
Kim: Anything under small screen size that can translatr to best practice or technque?
15:08:27 [Detlev]
Jon: Difference betweeen small screen size and magnification
15:08:44 [Detlev]
Jon; sent an email about that to list
15:09:09 [Kim]
https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-mobile-a11y-tf/2015Apr/0026.html
15:10:19 [Detlev]
Jon: Under zoom there is a larger topic: resize text, restrictions on elements that will not zoom, for example
15:10:49 [Detlev]
Marc: Is that adressing failures or techniques?
15:11:01 [AWK]
AWK has joined #mobile-a11y
15:11:05 [Zakim]
+AWK
15:11:13 [Detlev]
Jon: Failures should be mire general, techniques more specific
15:11:34 [Detlev]
Jon: issues with VW units
15:11:55 [Detlev]
Jon: issues arise because screen size is smaller
15:12:57 [Detlev]
Jeane: what is this CSS issue (esantd zto pick up elsewhere)
15:13:35 [Detlev]
Jon; VW units define size relative to the screen width
15:14:21 [jon_avila]
http://codepen.io/vcurd/full/ByerKw
15:14:26 [Detlev]
Jon: used to preserve the look of something regardless of font size
15:15:00 [Detlev]
Jon: There's a discussion on the mobile a11y list around that
15:15:57 [Detlev]
Jon: Issues aries on mobile due to small size - needs more testing
15:16:24 [Detlev]
Jeanne: Text did enlarge in Firefox (desktop)
15:17:17 [Detlev]
Jeanne: VW units does not restrict resizing but defines the way it does
15:17:45 [Detlev]
Jeanne: many things thst crop up that go unnoticed so importsant to call them out
15:18:16 [Detlev]
Kim: looking at example on iphone and all lines are enlarging
15:19:16 [Detlev]
Marc: Looking on it on an Android and it works there, too - not just increasing the font size but everything
15:20:28 [Detlev]
Kim: different scenarios, mobile and desktop - different to define common rules
15:21:12 [Detlev]
Marc: middle line starts of smaller than on desktop (Chrome on Android)
15:21:57 [Detlev]
Jeanne: Need to set up better test - having a hard time finding out how it is coded, there are many other things in that example
15:22:46 [Detlev]
Kim: Opening it in Vivaldi - lines initially the same size
15:22:59 [marcjohlic]
.vws {
15:23:01 [marcjohlic]
font-size: 1vw;
15:23:02 [marcjohlic]
}
15:23:13 [marcjohlic]
<p class="vws">
15:23:15 [marcjohlic]
The font size of this paragraph is set in viewport…
15:23:16 [marcjohlic]
</p>
15:24:03 [Detlev]
Jeanne: aparently very different browser implementations
15:24:15 [Detlev]
Kim: Other issues / technique?
15:25:45 [Detlev]

15:27:58 [Detlev]
Captions not visible on mobile devices - they can be made visible on desktop, not in Chrome on Android - possibly leading to a technique .. not sure
15:29:19 [Detlev]
Jon: are captions turned on on the OS settings? In this video they are nit displayed even with captions enabled on the OS level
15:30:06 [Detlev]
Kim: anyone with devices where captions are enabled and ARE shown?
15:31:09 [Detlev]
may be control missing
15:31:32 [Detlev]
Kim: No luck in Safari iOS
15:32:20 [Detlev]
Henny: in Youtube app on iOS it says no captions available
15:32:26 [jeanne]
jeanne: I have captions turned on in iOS 8.3 and am not seeing captions or a control to turn on captions in Ted.com player in Safari.
15:33:43 [Detlev]
Marc: wondering if the auto-generating feature does not work on mobile or if they supplied a caption file
15:33:55 [Detlev]
Kim: How would a TED video be different?
15:34:41 [Detlev]
Marc: works fine in TED app
15:35:04 [Detlev]
Jeanne: DId not open captions in Safari
15:35:33 [Detlev]
Marc: Android /Chrome does not offer a caption option to enable captiond
15:36:08 [Detlev]
Andrew: on iOS and Android it is doen for OS preferences / caption setttings
15:36:25 [Detlev]
Marc: Captions on on Nexus five, still not shown
15:36:57 [Detlev]
Marc: Player doesnot honour settings - is it an issue for web developers?
15:37:50 [Detlev]
Kim: Not getting captions on TED video when downloading
15:38:16 [Detlev]
Andrew: three verical dots show caption button -
15:38:32 [Detlev]
Jon: but not on the example sent earlier -
15:38:55 [Detlev]
Marc: may be down to being explicitly provided vs. auto-generated
15:39:47 [jon_avila]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BEQ-wfJisBA
15:40:54 [Detlev]
Marc: TED app on android dod provide captions not seen via Chrome
15:41:20 [AWK]
I'm sure that we could get the low-down on how youtube does this via Loretta or Ken Harrenstein
15:41:32 [Detlev]
UAAG or WCAG issue?
15:41:45 [Detlev]
Jeane: more a UA issue should be flagged
15:41:58 [Detlev]
Kim: should be put into the use cases
15:42:35 [Detlev]
Kim: TED app works on ANdroid, browsers did not
15:42:59 [Detlev]
Kim: jeanne, where's the best place for it?
15:43:19 [Detlev]
Jeanne: taking note for UAAG
15:43:56 [Detlev]
Jeanne: Separate WIKI page for UAAG issues related to mobile
15:44:21 [Detlev]
Kim: Also check on a variety of browsers
15:45:12 [Detlev]
Kim: Getting back to perceivable techniques related to small screen size? Everythign covered?
15:45:23 [Detlev]
Kim: ANythign on zoom mag issues
15:46:25 [Detlev]
Kim: Contrast? Anything mobile techniques / best practices here?
15:49:28 [Detlev]
Jon: Issues related to calculate point size at which you apply lower contrast requiremnets (3:1)
15:50:07 [Detlev]
Jon: We need a sufficient technique for people to test that - its in the mobile note
15:50:24 [Detlev]
Jon: Will come up with wording
15:50:56 [Detlev]
Jon: Possibly also advisory techniques with more stringent contrast requirements
15:52:35 [Detlev]
Detlev: Check where a11y features set at OS apply to browser content
15:53:22 [Detlev]
Jon: If it works users can be asked to turn on settings to achieve higher contrast
15:53:36 [Detlev]
Kim: What is the situation across OSs?
15:54:17 [Detlev]
Jon: easy on iOS but there are many Android skins where OS setting may be supported or not
15:54:34 [Detlev]
Kim; can we rely on that then? How do we handle that?
15:55:07 [Detlev]
Jeanne: WCAG can say where the technique applies (bound to OS ect)
15:56:04 [Detlev]
Jeanne: has to be handled by differentiating betwen different OS / UA etc
15:58:04 [Detlev]
Like Accessessibility support - if not sufficiently supported then it is not a good candidate for a sufficient technique
15:58:35 [AWK]
q+ people may be interested in settlement with EdX and US DOJ - mentions the mobile TF! http://www.justice.gov/sites/default/files/opa/press-releases/attachments/2015/04/02/edx_settlement_agreement.pdf

q+ to say people may be interested in settlement with EdX and US DOJ - mentions the mobile TF! http://www.justice.gov/sites/default/files/opa/press-releases/attachments/2015/04/02/edx_settlement_agreement.pdf
15:59:29 [Detlev]
MIT has stopped funding Zakim so we need to move to WebX
15:59:38 [jeanne]
WebEx
15:59:54 [Detlev]
WebEx can call US!
16:00:04 [marcjohlic]
q+ to say found that html5 captioned videos with <track> elements work fine in mobile browser - and question about mobile techniques notes
16:00:13 [Detlev]
Zakim will not tell us who is on the call
16:00:35 [Detlev]
Jeanne: we are losing some and gaining some
16:01:09 [Detlev]
Andrew: Trials to day with iOS app - worked well - there may be a11y issues
16:01:27 [Detlev]
Andrew: Talking about a11y settle ment (quoted above)

16:02:49 [Detlev]
Marc: HTML5 video & track element seems to work -
16:03:42 [Detlev]
Marc: Note at broad audience to look at features - some confusion due to different numbering of mobile note vs. WCAG numbering
