WinForms Document Viewer component complies to Section 508 and WCAG 2.x standards criteria. We have not encountered any issues other than the following:
| Section 508 criteria | WCAG 2.x criteria | Exception description |
|---|---|---|
| 1.3.1 Info and Relationships | In the Document Page area, assistive technology cannot programmatically determine which column header is associated with a specific cell. | |
| 1.3.2 Meaningful Sequence | The reading sequence is determined by the order in which visual elements of the document (bricks) are created when a report is processed. This order may not correspond to the visual order on the page. | |
| 2.1.2 No Keyboard Trap | Document Map panel focus cannot be moved with arrow or tab keys. | |
| 3.1.1 Language of Page | The component does not expose UI language information to assistive technologies. A developer can specify a language in the page that contains the component. |
A user can use the following keys to interact with the Document Viewer:
| Key | Action |
|---|---|
| Tab | Navigates between the Document area, Parameters panel, Document Map panel. Navigates between Ribbon items. Navigates between elements in Parameters and Document Map panels. |
| Narrator + Left/Right Arrow | Moves between Ribbon command items. Navigates within the contents of a document page when you move focus to a document page. Moves between editors in Document Map and Export panels. Selects an item in drop-down boxes. |
| Esc | Moves focus to the page that contains bricks when navigating between bricks on a page. |
| Space | Triggers an action when a command item is selected in the Ribbon. |
WinForms Document Viewer supports screen readers and complies to WAI-ARIA standards. The exceptions are listed in the Accessibility Standards Compliance topic section.
