Re: Function explanations for aria-keyshortcuts values

Authoring Practices has an open issue on this
https://github.com/w3c/aria-practices/issues/253

It is targeted for 1.2 Release 2

Are you asking for this to be on an APG agenda or an ARIA agenda?

Subject: Function explanations for aria-keyshortcuts values
Hi James,

Can we please put a short discussion for that on agenda for one of the next meetings?

Latest https://w3c.github.io/aria-practices/ contains no information about aria-keyshortcuts.

Background is that it is unclear/not defined


  *   Which means are to be used in priority to explain shortcut function for non-visible label scenarios (tooltip, hidden text, app documentation)
  *   If tooltip and/or non-visible descriptions should, may, or may not contain shortcut values (redundancy in speech)
  *   If ARIA spec chapter for aria-keyshortcuts could be extended by respective instructions (editorial change)

Thanks + Best Regards
