Focus Appearance was slightly different 15:43:14 ... ("focus must be visually indicated") 15:43:21 ... the requirements had a slightly different structure 15:43:38 ... for all focus indicators, there are certain base requirements: 15:43:45 ... - must exist 15:43:51 ... - can't be obscured 15:43:56 ... - must be percsistent 15:44:01 ... [see rest of list] 15:44:19 ... then a set of hopefully mutually-exclusive scenarios 15:44:39 ... - using default user agent indicator 15:44:44 ... - not using default indicator 15:45:10 ... - - (specific requirements thereof) 15:45:43 ... adjacent contrast needs to work differently depending on the type of indicator you have 15:45:50 +1 to the approach of specific reqs for common types of indicator, much more realistic to test this with tools without having to resort to pixel-picking 15:46:50 ... [various other specific requirements for different types of indicators] 15:47:08 ... so slightly different structure from Text Alternatives 15:47:26 ...
