- TOPIC: Switch Pattern
- 18:31:22 [Jemma]
- https://pr-preview.s3.amazonaws.com/w3c/aria-practices/pull/1891.html#switch
- 18:32:33 [Jemma]
- mck: I have been thinking about question regarding how to distingish switch from checkbox
- 18:32:48 [Jemma]
- mck:"A switch is an input widget that allows users to choose one of two values: on or off. A switch is similar to a checkbox that allows users to choose between the values of checked or unchecked. However, unlike a switch, a checkbox can also allow a third value of partially checked."
- 18:33:37 [Jemma]
- mck: discussion is on "Since switch and checkbox both offer binary input, semantically, they are often interchangeable. So, unlike other ARIA roles, the most appropriate choice of role can depend on visual presentation. However, there are circumstances where the semantics of on or off are easier for assistive technology users to understand than the semantics of checked or unchecked, and vice versa. For instance, screen reader output of
- 18:33:37 [Jemma]
- Lights switch button on is more user friendly than Lights checkbox checked if the function of the widget were to turn some lights on or off. However, if the same input were in a group of inputs labeled Which of the following must be included in your pre-takeoff procedures?, Lights checkbox checked would make more sense."
- 18:34:28 [Jemma]
- mck: is above worded correctly?

- mck: revision "choosing whether switch or checkbox is most approproiate for
- 18:42:41 [Jemma]
- given implementation
- 18:43:16 [Matt_King]
- So, choosing whether switch or checkbox is most appripriate for a given implementation can depend on visual presentation.
- 18:45:11 [Jemma]
- mck: final edit is "choosing whether switch or checkbox is most appripriate for a given implementation can depend on visual design"
- 18:46:14 [Jemma]
- mark is reading "However, there are circumstances where the semantics of on or off are easier for assistive technology users to understand than the semantics of checked or unchecked, and vice versa. For instance, screen reader output of

- 18:47:41 [Jemma]
- siri: what if there is only one check box?
- 18:49:02 [Jemma]
- mck: I am trying to come up with the different scenario for different use cases.
- 18:52:25 [CurtBellew]
- I need to drop off. Not feeling well. See you next time.
- 18:55:14 [Jemma]
- mck: since it is straght forward for each eaxmple description, we would not need paragraph before example section. also not having this contents are consistent as it is following the APG template.
