9.2.2 Provide highly visible keyboard focus and text cursors
Software shall provide at least one mode where keyboard focus cursors and
text cursors shall be visually locatable by people with unimpaired vision at
2.5 meters when software is displayed on a 38 cm (15 inch) diagonal screen
at 1024 x 768 pixels resolution, without moving the cursor.
EXAMPLE 1: The software provides an option of having a thick rectangle of
contrasting color that moves to and outlines the control or field that has
keyboard focus.
EXAMPLE 2: The software provides an option of having bright, yellow
triangles extend from the top and bottom of the text cursor.
