Hi Jan, Thanks for the feedback - comments in return:
- I personally like the thought of end users being able to choose alternative graphing methods; something to consider when we’re designing and implementing the embed experience - I think accessible data tables are pretty much a given - sonification is a planned part of the authoring tool and incorporated into the current designs (https://www.dropbox.com/s/c7qfhpf13cw12ei/CA%20Tool%20%5BVersion%207%5D.pdf?dl=0) <https://www.dropbox.com/s/c7qfhpf13cw12ei/CA%20Tool%20%5BVersion%207%5D.pdf?dl=0> - there are also some interesting sonification sketches at https://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Sonification+Sketches On Jul 29, 2015, at 10:17 AM, Richards, Jan <jricha...@ocadu.ca<mailto:jricha...@ocadu.ca>> wrote: Hi Alan, Some thoughts on: https://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Open+Source+Chart+Library+Selection Under "Accessibility criteria", so far you have: * Alternate representations * Navigating aspects of chart with keyboard only * Screen reader behaviour I might add: * Ability of the end user to choose alternative graphing methods (e.g. subbing a bar chart for a pie chart) * Ability of the end user to choose to display accessible data tables * Timing control (pause/play, step forward, step back, etc.) in the event that dynamic charting is used. Can I assume that UIOptions support (e.g. for end user control of contrast, text size, spacing, etc.) is a given? Also, has thought been given to adding sonfication in the future?

We have a proposed approach for going forward that we’d invite others to review: https://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Open+Source+Chart+Library+Selection (the first half of the page is the research outcomes; the second half is an earlier capture of our criteria) Thanks, Alan
