Hi Folks
here is a drfat of the new proposals for distractions. (To get the ball rolling)
John is this what you had in mind?
moving: Non-essential distracting content that includes movement. This includes: computer-generated moving images; content that starts automatically or is automatically updating; and elements that change locations on the screen without user interaction.
messages: Communication sent to or left for the user or the interface that allows interaction of text-based messages. Messages may also be automaticaly updating. Essential system messages should not be tagged as distractions.
overlay: A part of an application or content that is non essential and displayed over the top of the main content in the same window such as a popup or child window that blocks user interaction to the parent window
third-party: An advertisement or offer for a product, feature or service or content that is not under the authors' control, that is not essential to the user's current task.
All the best
