Re: ADA Compliance ???
I’m familiar with web accessibility: https://www.w3.org/WAI/intro/accessibility.php <https://www.w3.org/WAI/intro/accessibility.php> I found this as an example for desktop software: https://www.justice.gov/crt/software-accessibility-checklist <https://www.justice.gov/crt/software-accessibility-checklist> Generally, the question is how would a person with a disability use your software? On the desktop I assumed most people punted to the OS. Apple has done a lot in that regard. I’m surprised (not) that this is the first time it’s come up for you, since the ADA was passed in 1990. > On Jan 24, 2018, at 8:04 AM, Randy Engle via 4D_Tech <4d_tech@lists.4d.com> > wrote: > > Every week, or so, one of our customers comes up with something that they > do/need that I've never heard of before. > > This weeks winner is a major city in Southern California.

Re: ADA Compliance ???
I would speculate that ADA compliance would include: -- Read from screen capabilities - for visual impairment -- zooming capabilities - for (less severe) visual impairment -- maybe color redefinition - for color blindness -- if your application uses sound to communicate - a visual prompt for hearing impaired -- alternate input options for the physically impaired (voice vs keyboard), alternate mousing I have NEVER tried any of these, but some of this capability *might* exist at the OS level. I know that there are some options with OS X, but I have never tried any of them with 4D, or anything I have developed.

ADA Compliance ???
Every week, or so, one of our customers comes up with something that they do/need that I've never heard of before. This weeks winner is a major city in Southern California. (no names mentioned...) They want to know at what "Level" our web product is ADA compliant. I'm aware of ADA compliance when it comes to physical spaces, ramps, bathrooms, etc., but not for software (web pages, specifically) Anybody had the pleasure of handling this one yet? Know of any resources?
