I think that works, we are clarifying the term “equivalent width” in the note, so for a page which is switched 90 degrees, width becomes height… From: John Foliot @David M. It could be an editorial (clarification) note in the actual SC. (examples today include SC 1.3.3, SC 1.4.1 & 1.4.2, SC 1.4.5, SC 1.4.7, ...and more) ???

If the vertical issue is not in the SC, it can't be freshly introduced in a note as an additional requirement. Cheers, David MacDonald CanAdapt Solutions Inc.

That would be my preference, and it’s already there! “320 CSS pixels is equivalent to a starting viewport width of 1280 CSS pixels wide at 400% zoom. For web pages which are designed to scroll horizontally, the 320px should be taken as the height rather than width.” Cheers, -Alastair -- John Foliot Principal Accessibility Strategist Deque Systems Inc. john.foliot@deque.com<mailto:john.foliot@deque.com> Advancing the mission of digital accessibility and inclusion
