@dirkschulze Just search for "visually hidden styles". Most results will either recommend `clip` or mention it as one possible option. It is *not* a misuse for screenreaders to ignore `visibility: hidden`. That's the expected behavior. The content is hidden, it shouldn't be read, it is saving space in the layout for later reveal. Hiding content from visual users but making it available to screenreaders is the hackier approach, since it goes against the normal rule that the screenreader reads what is on the screen. There is discussion in https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/560 about creating a formal way of doing this, but until then the "visually hidden" set of styles will remain in use. -- GitHub Notification of comment by AmeliaBR Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/fxtf-drafts/issues/248#issuecomment-380127644 using your GitHub account
