Re: LVTF agenda items

Aside from updating Informational Graphic Contrast, I would also like to
add Using User Settings (happy to take this SC on):

Wondering if Using User Settings should stipulate that web content be
readable/visible in Windows high contrast mode (or ZoomText/MAGic) - or is
this too technology specific?

Issues such as:
   background images that get turned off in high contrast mode can cause
   problems with text being visible or having enough contrast.
   iconography that doesn't show up well in high contrast mode because it
   might either be too small or may also have poor contrast against the
   background when transparency is used.
   Copy/paste features when high contrast mode is on (either copy paste is
   copying and pasting the high contrast color schemes and you don't want
   them to because the user you're sending the information to isn't using
   that mode, or when copying/pasting between applications and some
   applications paste in high contrast mode and some don't.
   Outlines of custom entry fields that disappear because a background
   image was used to provide the box.
   Checkbox and radio button states that don't appear to be visually
   apparent because of customization that doesn't work well in HCM, isn't
   in the HCM color scheme the user had chosen
