Laura, et al. I’m concerned with the wording from the GitHub link for the latest proposal, It starts out with the statement by allanj-uaaag Current: Text can be resized without assistive technology up to 200 percent in a way that does not require the user to scroll horizontally to read a line of text on a full-screen window. This is an inaccurate statement. The current 1.4.4 allows for scrolling if necessary in the Examples for Success: “A user uses a zoom function in his user agent to change the scale of the content. All the content scales uniformly, and the user agent provides scroll bars, if necessary.” I also think it is physically impossible to increase to 1100% without horizontal scrolling. Is their an actual font size that the 1100% value is trying to achieve? 1100% creates a totally different end resultant font size on a 10” tablet as it does on a 15” laptop or a 24” monitor. What the user gets with 1100% on a larger monitor would not be nearly what they get on a smaller monitor/screen size. Should we state that it needs to be 1100% for 15” monitors but something like 1800” for 10” screens and 2200% for 6” smart phones. Would we also need to make sure that touch target sizes for buttons and icons need to be scalable to some value at a similar percentage as well for low vision and users with dexterity and motor skill issues?
