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. |
Supports |
The application has no known issues regarding keyboard functionality. |
(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. |
Supports |
This application has no known issues working with the standard Windows Accessibility Tools and the Screen Reader. |
(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. |
Partially Supports |
There are instances where the focus isn’t visible, but a majority of the application meets these criteria. |
(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. |
Partially Supports |
There are a few elements that are missing sufficient information, but the majority of the application meets these criteria. |
(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. |
Supports |
There are no known images that fails these criteria in the application. |
(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 |
There are no known instances of text being displayed in a unique format. |
(g) Applications shall not override user selected contrast and color selections and other individual display attributes. |
Supports |
This application has no known compatibility issues with a user’s display settings. |
(h) When animation is displayed, the information shall be displayable in at least one non-animated presentation mode at the option of the user. |
Supports |
There are no known animations in the application. |
(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. |
Supports |
There are no known issues of only color indicating information. |
(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 |
There are no known color adjustment tools in the application. |
(k) 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 |
There are no known uses of flashing or blinking text in the application. |
(l) 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. |
Partially Supports |
There are a few elements that aren’t recognized by assistive technology, but a majority of the application meets these criteria. |
