It should be "enhanced" instead of "minimum" as this is the SC for "Contrast (Enhanced)". > > Proposed Change: > Change "..., have no minimum contrast requirement" to "..., have no enhanced contrast requirement". > > ================================ Response from the Working Group ================================ "Minimum" is correct in these parts of SC 1.4.6. Just as with SC 1.4.3, there is no minimum contrast requirement for text that occurs in the situations described by the Incidental and Logotypes clauses. So that text may have very poor contrast and still satisfy the success criterion. We have revised the second bullet of 1.4.3 and 1.4.6 as follows to clarify this: Incidental: Text or images of text that are part of an inactive user interface component, that are pure decoration, that are not visible to anyone, or that are part of a picture that contains significant other visual content, have no contrast requirement.
