No previous message | Next message →
Hi all,
We are seeing an issue with the accessible name for the Full screen button
in Youtube player.
Screen reader(NVDA) is announcing it as "Full screen" button initially and
then on tabbing out and returning to full screen button it is announcing it
as just "button" without announcing the label.
Did someone face the similar issue or have this as known issue.?
Thanks
Sudheer

Well, I didn't believe you at first because I use the fullscreen button
quite often and it's always been read correctly, but I just tried it and it
looks like it's broken. There must have been a youtube update because the
other buttons in the player now have shortcut keys, which I don't remember
them having before. All the buttons have an aria-label except the
fullscreen button. I think they forgot it. You should send them feedback.

Interesting... I had not seen the shortcuts, cool! One thing I noticed, though, was that the next button has shortcut NEXT N in caps, different that the others. Perhaps so it stands out from the next title preview thumbnail? But the contrast is lesser than the other shortcuts. The font color is a light grey instead of white.
