Develop tabs example with actions on each tab using aria-actions property #3070
Comments
Pull request #3071 provides a starting point based on the example of tabs with manual activation. The task force is looking for a volunteer to adopt this issue and #3071 to help advance the aria-actions specification (w3c/aria#1805). |
How should the keyboard interface change when the action buttons are added? The ARIA specification requires that:

The ARIA Authoring Practices (APG) Task Force just discussed The full IRC log of that discussion<jugglinmike> Topic: Design keyboard interface for tabs with action buttons<jugglinmike> github: https://github.com//issues/3070 <jugglinmike> Matt_King: Adam Page will be joining the meeting next week, and I think he has volunteered to take this one one <jugglinmike> Matt_King: It will be our first experimental example. It's very simple <jugglinmike> Matt_King: Most of the authoring requirements for aria-actions are pretty straightfoward <jugglinmike> Matt_King: One of them, though, opens a lot of questions <jugglinmike> Matt_King: It's about the way actions are focusable <jugglinmike> Matt_King: There are a couple ways of doing that <jugglinmike> Matt_King: I just started brainstorming and made a list of ideas; they're available in my most recent comment on the issue <jugglinmike> Matt_King: I don't know if there are any conventions here <jugglinmike> CurtBellew: I don't know if we have any of these in my product <jugglinmike> Matt_King: I know of an implementation that I don't like... <jugglinmike> dmontalvo: I think I would prefer the first of the six points you have listed here <jugglinmike> dmontalvo: Though, as you note, the arrow keys depend on the orientation of the tab strip <jugglinmike> Matt_King: Option 4 might work better with a vertical tab strip, and option 1 or 2 might work better with a horizontal tab strip... <jugglinmike> jongund: I'd like to think about this some more <jugglinmike> CurtBellew: I'd like to think on it more, too <jugglinmike> jugglinmike: With vertical tab lists, I wonder if the direction of the "open" action should be informed by the document's language. Maybe it makes more sense for the "left" arrow to open a menu that's presented in a left-to-right language <jugglinmike> Matt_King: That's an interesting thought and worth considering <jugglinmike> Matt_King: ...but we're out of time. Thanks, everyone! <jugglinmike> Zakim, end the meeting |
…ria-actions (pull #3071) Resolves issue #3070. Adds a tabs example that is functionally equivalent to the tabs with manual activation example except that it also includes an actions button for each tab. Each tab element includes the `aria-actions` attribute referencing its associated actions button. --------- Co-authored-by: Adam Page <[email protected]> Co-authored-by: Adam Page <[email protected]>
Develop an example of the tabs pattern that illustrates how to use aria-actions to provide a actions menubutton for each tab. The actions in the menu could include actions like move left, move right, and remove.
Authoring requirements from the draft ARIA specification:
