The schedule is available in today's agenda 19:06:48 Topic: Status of Site Updates 19:07:02 Jem: Four pull requests were included in a release published today 19:07:39 Jem: Five more pull requests are targetted for the December 18th branch cut 19:07:52 Jem: All nine pull requests are listed in today's meeting agenda 19:08:44 arigilmore_ has joined #aria-apg 19:13:59 The changed text is 19:14:20 "This rating widget employs a slider because of the relatively large number of values on its scale; it provides a ten-point scale. 19:14:20 For inputs with seven or fewer choices,another pattern that could be used is radio group as demonstrated by the 19:14:20 Rating Radio Group Example. 19:14:20 However, when there are more than seven choices, the radio group pattern is less friendly to keyboard and assistive technology users because it does not provide as many ways of easily navigating through choices as other input patterns, such as 19:14:20 slider, 19:14:22 spin button, 19:14:22 combobox, 19:14:22 and listbox." 19:18:48 present+ 19:23:41 https://deploy-preview-248--aria-practices.netlify.app/aria/apg/patterns/feed/examples/feed/ 19:35:28 subtopic: PR 2775: Feed Example: Move display of example from separate page into standard APG example page by ariellalgilmore 19:35:41 github: https://github.com/w3c/aria-practices/pull/2775 19:36:16 Matt_King: Ctrl+N is moving focus to the "feed delay" dropdown, which is at the top of the feed 19:36:40 Matt_King: We could add some kind of focusable element inside the example at the end of the feed--right outside of the feed 19:37:12 present+ ariellagilmore 19:37:21 present+ Jemma 19:39:17 jugglinmike: Or a "fake footer" since that's the kind of content which typically follows a feed and which can be difficult to access 19:40:07 jugglinmike: We can describe it very literally so that folks recognize how it fits in the example. "This is a simulated page footer" or something like that 19:40:24 Matt_King: I like that. Maybe a fake "terms of use" 19:41:58 Matt_King: Or a button that opens a standard browser alert 19:43:01 ariellagilmore: So this button will serve as an in-document destination for the "Ctrl+N" keyboard shortcut 19:43:47 ariellagilmore: I can add this to the pull request 19:44:49 Topic: Tab behavior in disclosure navigation menu 19:45:10 Matt_King: In the interest of time, we'll revisit this issue in our next meeting 19:45:30 Topic: Inconsistencies in Page Up and Page Down guidance 19:45:53 github: https://github.com/w3c/aria-practices/issues/2861 19:46:13 Matt_King: This person is pointing out that many of our examples do a lot of different things with "Page up" and "page down" 19:46:27 Matt_King: Those buttons behavior differently on macOS and Windows 19:46:56 Matt_King: There are three questions here 19:48:33 Matt_King: Even though this issue is generally about "page up" and "page down", I'm not sure if there's one answer here. The best way to triage may be to break it up into multiple issues 19:49:23 present+ CoryJoseph 19:50:14 CoryJoseph: I can share some feedback on the issue (though I may need a few weeks) 19:51:07 Topic: Issue 2881 - Should there be preference for using hidden attribute? 19:51:19 github: https://github.com/w3c/aria-practices/issues/2881 19:51:33 Matt_King: Looking at the code for Tree Grid, we're hiding and unhiding using CSS 19:51:56 Matt_King: This person is asking, "wouldn't the code be more clear if it used the 'hidden' attribute instead?" 19:52:00 present+ jongund 19:52:14 jongund: I don't think it makes a difference; just a different coding style 19:54:04 jugglinmike: Using the "hidden" HTML attribute is less ambiguous, and I would prefer it, but I think a CSS class name like "hidden" is relatively descriptive 19:54:11 CoryJoseph: I feel the same 19:54:28 Topic: Issue 2864 - High contrast support practices 19:54:35 github: https://github.com/w3c/aria-practices/issues/2864 19:55:13 jongund: We have a lot of examples which are just using the current color value. As a result, we're kind of relying on the background color being managed by the page 19:55:55 Matt_King: As for the approach, we could just start changing individual patterns one-by-one 19:56:21 s/start/start randomly/ 19:56:23 Matt_King: Or we could create a project to track the work across the site 19:56:46 Matt_King: It might also touch on the idea we've discussed about a code quality report 19:58:19 Jem: It sounds like support for CSS4 has improved since we last considered forced colors. Do you know anything about this, jongund? 19:58:33 jongund: I tried using it, and it seems to be better-supported, now 19:59:52 ariellagilmore: We use media queries in Carbon, though I don't think we've used forced colors, yet 20:00:25 jongund: I think a new practice would be a good place to collect the ways people successfully use the technology 20:00:45 Matt_King: Something like this could fit into a practice 20:01:26 Matt_King: jongund, do you want me to set up a pull request for a new "practices" page about high contrast? 20:01:32 jongund: Yeah, that would be helpful 20:01:47 Matt_King: Is this something that you could test for in the code quality report? 20:02:02 jongund: Yeah, we could check for the presence of the media query 20:02:25 jongund: At this point, we could just look at the the examples which are using "current-color". Those would be the high-priority one 20:02:31 s/one/ones/ 20:03:52 Matt_King: Okay, I'll start a pull request for a "high-contrast support" practice. And jongund, you can start a pull request for the code quality report 20:05:46 Zakim, end the meeting 20:05:46 As of this point the attendees have been jugglinmike, CurtBellew, ariellagilmore, Jemma, CoryJoseph, jongund 20:05:49 RRSAgent, please draft minutes v2 20:05:50 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2023/12/12-aria-apg-minutes.html Zakim 20:05:56 I am happy to have been of service, jugglinmike; please remember to excuse RRSAgent.
