Hello,

We didn't receive a lot of response on this and need to clear it up.

For me I prefer #2 but can live with 3. I am concerned that #1 does violate screen reader best practices.

Best regards,

Rachael

I find option 1. the clearest.

Screen reader issues can be addressed using  aria-lable
unfortunately the headings are often off the page view so they do not always give context

Hello,

An issue was raised that when reading the table of contents for Making Content Usable, the repetitive headings for patterns and user stories made reading more difficult than necessary.

Today we decided that we should keep the structure of the headings in the table of contents and the document the same. Below are the options for ways we can present the headings for patterns and users stories. Please write back with which alternative you prefer or another alternative not listed here..

1 (current):  User Story: Previous Steps and Pattern: Make Each Step Clear
2: Previous Steps (User Story) and Make Each Step Clear (Pattern)
3: Previous Steps - User Story and Make Each Step Clear - Pattern
4. Previous Steps and Make Each Step Clear

Thank you,

Rachael
