Software Applications and Operating Systems – Detail
CRITERIA | SUPPORTING FEATURES | REMARKS AND EXPLANATIONS |
a. When software is designed to run on a system that has a keyboard, product functions shall be executable from a keyboard where the function itself or the result of performing a function can be discerned textually.
Note. The control by the keyboard may vary slightly depending on the browser since the behavior of the application itself is based on them. |
Supports | The operability of the application can be performed using the keyboard. It is enabled by a keyboard operation in a completely autonomous way, without having to use the mouse. |
b. Applications shall not disrupt or disable activated features of other products that are identified as accessibility features, where those features are developed and documented according to industry standards. Applications also shall not disrupt or disable activated features of any operating system that are identified as accessibility features where the application programming interface for those accessibility features has been documented by the manufacturer of the operating system and is available to the product developer. | Not Applicable | There are no 2nd- or 3rd-party applications. |
c. A well-defined on-screen indication of the current focus shall be provided that moves among interactive interface elements as the input focus changes. The focus shall be programmatically exposed so that Assistive Technology can track focus and focus changes. | Supports | Customized visual indication of user input focus. |
d. Sufficient information about a user interface element including the identity, operation, and state of the element shall be available to Assistive Technology. When an image represents a program element, the information conveyed by the image must also be available in text. | Supports | The application has icons and a caption section explaining the meaning. |
e. When bitmap images are used to identify controls, status indicators, or other programmatic elements, the meaning assigned to those images shall be consistent throughout an application’s performance. | Partially supported | The application has icons and a caption section explaining the meaning. |
f. Textual information shall be provided through operating system functions for displaying text. The minimum information that shall be made available is text content, text input caret location, and text attributes. | Supports | All the images (exhibits, icons, images, etc) in the Platform will be labeled to enable it’s reading for blind users applications. |
g. Applications shall not override user selected contrast and color selections and other individual display attributes. | Supports | Users have a configuration panel where they can modify options or customizing the platform on general or accessibility subjects. |
h. When animation is displayed, the information shall be displayable in at least one non-animated presentation mode at the option of the user. | Not Applicable | There are no animations. |
i. Color coding shall not be used as the only means of conveying information, indicating an action, prompting a response, or distinguishing a visual element. | Partially supported | |
j. When a product permits a user to adjust color and contrast settings, a variety of color selections capable of producing a range of contrast levels shall be provided. | Supports | Enabling interface mode for colorblind users, improving the use, and identification of the elements for these users. |
k. When a product permits a user to adjust color and contrast settings, a variety of color selections capable of producing a range of contrast levels shall be provided. | Supports | |
l. Software shall not use flashing or blinking text, objects, or other elements having a flash or blink frequency greater than 2 Hz and lower than 55 Hz. | Supports | |
m. When electronic forms are used, the form shall allow people using Assistive Technology to access the information, field elements, and functionality required for completion and submission of the form, including all directions and cues. | Supports |
