Section 1194.21 Software Applications and Operating Systems - Detail Voluntary Product Accessibility
Template
Criteria
(a) When software is designed to run
on a system that has a keyboard,
product functions shall be executable
from a keyboard where the function
itself or the result of performing a
function can be discerned textually.
(b) Applications shall not disrupt or
disable activated features of other
products that are identified as
accessibility features, where those
features are developed and
documented according to industry
standards. Applications also shall not
disrupt or disable activated features
of any operating system that are
identified as accessibility features
where the application programming
interface for those accessibility
features has been documented by
the manufacturer of the operating
system and is available to the
product developer.
(c) A well-defined on-screen
indication of the current focus shall
be provided that moves among
interactive interface elements as the
input focus changes. The focus shall
be programmatically exposed so that
Assistive Technology can track focus
and focus changes.
(d) Sufficient information about a
