> The definition of changes of context > <https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG21/Understanding/on-input.html#dfn-changes > -of-context> states 'moving focus to a different component' is one of the examples of change of context. > > Does that mean opening a modal window is a change of context? > If yes then how do we comply with 3.2.2 (informing the user ahead of time)? No, since activating a button to open a modal dialog window is not input. If you are using a button to open the dialog window, you can use <button aria-haspopup="dialog">do something</button> to indicate to a screen reader user that there will be an overlay. Typical applicability of 3.2.2 would be an input field or selecting an option in a <select> when keyboard focus changes during input/selection.
