Hi All,

We are having a scenario while testing for 1.4.10 Reflow, where we are
zooming the view port to 400% in 1280 x 768 resolution, and in this
environment, the content is getting scattered that makes it not
usable. However if we test in the portrait mode which has a resolution
of 1280 x 1024 px, the content is understandable and appears to be in
a single column.

Upon checking the details at
https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG21/Understanding/reflow.html, for
vertically scrolling content  to reach 320 CSS pixels, the width of
the view port is given as 1280 px, which has to be zoomed to 400%. But
here height of the view port is not mentioned.

Now, the question is that, as we are having different behavior for
different height of the view ports, which one should we consider as
compliant?

Best,
Ajay
