<jamesn> rragent, make minutes
<jemma> "ungraceful shut down." ;-)

MK: Went to the description
<jamesn> Rewrite description to be more inline with spec; remove compact visual form language.
<jamesn> Delete references to menu/menubar.
<jamesn> delete sentence about using role group for a bunch of toolbars.
<jamesn> In keyboard interaction, remove:
<jamesn> "Direction may need to be adjusted for Right to Left languages "
MK: Left off at keyboard
interaction
... James do you want to review?
... Any other changes that need to be logged?
JN: You can put any sort of controls in toolbars, correct?
MK: Yes, that does mean you can put in inputs that capture left/right arrows.
JN: Current advice to developers,
a) do it, but make it so you can tab in/out of the input. b)
make the input its own toolbar
... Possibly a problem for AT switching navigation mode while
tabbing between input/toolbar
BG: What is the problem?
MK: Application toolbars that don't allow for keyboard navigation are a real pain to use.
MB: Is this a pattern seen on Windows? Mac doesn't do this for toolbars.
JN/MK: OS X not designed for keyboard use.
MK: we need to word smith this
into the description: “some elements in the toolbar may consume
left and right arrow keys”
... What do people think of this note:
provide a documented keystroke that allows users to move focus quickly to the tool bar from elsewhere within the web application, placing focus on a tool within the tool bar.
MK: CKEdit uses F10 to move to editor toolbar.
JN: Change to “should consider to
provide…”
... If there is a main toolbar, it is good to have a keystroke
to move to that, but not if you have a gazillion toolbars.
MK: Or move to context dependent toolbar.
*James typing loudly*
MK: What to do with: There is debate concerning the treatment of disabled toolbar buttons -- should they be focusable or not?
JN: Agree/disagree some of the
time; depends.
... Annoying if one button is enabled and 10 are disabled
MK: Agree with James
... What do others think?
BG: I don't think they should be focusable
MK: We should remove the words “there is debate”
MB: Can't we just remove everything except for “Disabled buttons are not focusable until they are enabled.”?
JN: Don't think Ribbons are the
right place to look for toolbars.
... Look like menu's on the top level
... Would like to see that our recommendation would be
something like: not focusable by default, but there are
specific cases where they should be.
MK: Then we should include at
least some examples of those specific cases.
... Include the rational
BG: And change buttons to elements?
All: yes.
MK: In general disabled elements are not included in the focus sequence, however there maybe some circumstances where discoverability of a function is crucial.
CP: Does it make sense to make them read only?
<jamesn> "In general disabled elements are not included in the focus sequence but there may be some circumstances where discoverability of a function is crucial and an author may choose to include in the navigation sequence."
MK: No.
JN: You can't have read-only radiobuttons or checkboxes
MK: Delete middle two bullets under states and properties.
AA: Remove line “too few or too many”
*all agree*
MK: Unsure about aria-label
JN: Only if there is more than one.
AA: Could have a visual label that labels something else
MK: I've done that
AA: aria-label if more than one
toolbar, and if no visual label
... and could do aria-labelledby if there is a visual label
JN: Is it helpful for toolbars being labelled.
MK: Depends on the
buttons/elements inside being labelled
... I find them helpful
JN: So let's leave the recommendation in
MB: You can still label the toolbar if there is only one; I label my nav's like main nav even if there is only one
MK: Yeah
<jamesn> MB: what do we do in other places about labelling
<jamesn> JN: labelling techniques are the same everywhere
<jamesn> AA: I don't think it hurts to call out aria-label or aria-labelledby
<jamesn> MK: I don't think there is a referencable section on that
<jamesn> Birkir: something about labelling widgets would be really useful
<jamesn> Birkir - techically they could use title
<jamesn> JN: yep
<jamesn> MK: wouldn't recommend that
<jamesn> JN: why
JN: Why should I have to label it twice?
<Birkir> title is a source of accessible name (the last fallback admittedly).
MK: That's a worthy issue being addressed
JN: It's like suggesting longdesc
in our document
... “warning: this is the last fallback!”
MK: I would never put title as a
best practice
... We circle back around to thinking not recommending
title
... Should only be done by people totally in the know
CP: Maybe makes sense if you know what you're doing
AA: Title is not part of APG/ARIA, we can leave it out
Birkir: good point
<jemma> I agree with annabbott about title
http://w3c.github.io/aria/practices/aria-practices.html#Listbox
MK: Have done some edits
... ARIA doesn't include a definition of “static”
... So I made up wording for it
A listbox widget allows a user to select one or more items from a list of choices or options. A listbox that allows a single option to be chosen is a single-select listbox; one that allows multiple options to be selected is a multi-select listbox.
JN: We have child stuff as the option
MK: Open that in a dialog
JN: No you focus into the child option
MK: You're going to have a screen
reader issue
... You can tab around in it, but content in it is
invisible
JN: No, if you go in it, you can arrow around in it.
MK: Must not be contained in an option elements
JN: Let me check that
MB: Should we drop “choices” from the first line?
MK: Was an editorial thing
AA: Think we can lose “choices”
JN: Will make a bug
*discussing the weather around the globe*
MK: Conclusion: we will remove choices
MB: Should everything after second sentence be a note?
Birkir: the one that starts with “This is because?”
MB: yes
... Good information, but adds more text
MK: Okay with removing it
... Let's move to the third paragraph
Birkir: explanation should be last
MK: Good point
... Instruction should be before explanantion
... Let's move to last/fourth paragraph
JN: Seems like a general
problem
... (not SR specific)
MK: I found it important enough to include
JN: I would argue you don't want repeated start strings for anyone
