[Mahara-contributors] [Bug 1737995] Re: Image description not showing when image is added to a text block
In bug #1982294 we tackle the difference between alt text and title text for an image. The wishlist item here is separate from it and could be taken on once we have that separation to also make it more easily available when selecting an image for a text block. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

[Mahara-contributors] [Bug 1737995] Re: Image description not showing when image is added to a text block
This turns out to be a bit more complex than upon quick reading. There is no clear distinction between alt text and image caption and we seem to be wanting to use the description field that is in the 'Files' area for both of these two things. However, these two can diverge and at times maybe even should diverge because the alt text is to describe the image, e.g. 'Two women dressed in warm jackets walk along a deserted beach', whereas the caption puts the image into the context of the surrounding text, e.g. 'Sandy and Mel discuss their latest project while out and about'. Currently, the description is used both for alt text and caption when an image is added in the 'Image' block. It is updated automatically when the description is changed for the file. The description is not pulled into a text block when the image is added via TinyMCE. The questions that are open right now as far as I can see are the following, also taking WCAG 2.1 into consideration before thinking about how to solve that technically: 1. Should alt text and caption always be the same or should they be able to diverge? 2. Do we need a title tag for images besides alt text and caption or is the title tag essentially the caption? 3. Do we want the alt text to be able to be changed depending on where the image is displayed or should the alt text always be the same? 4. Do we want to be able to display a different caption for an image when it is displayed in pages? Scope limitation: for when an image is embedded in text, but not when it's used in an 'Image' or 'Image gallery' block. 5. Should a portfolio author be able to decide whether to display alt text? 6. Should a portfolio author be able to decide whether to display a caption? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

Currently, the image description is added as an alt tag.

[Mahara-contributors] [Bug 1737995] Re: Image description not showing when image is added to a text block
Option 2 sounds a bit more flexible as it would allow you to change the description if needed rather than always having to take the one that's in the files area. ** Tags added: accessibility -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

[Mahara-contributors] [Bug 1737995] Re: Image description not showing when image is added to a text block
Hi Sam, Currently if you add an image to a page via the 'Image' block you can select whether you want to display the description/caption as well via the 'Show description' option. However, currently, when adding an image to the text block, via the editor's 'Insert/edit image' button there is no option to include the description. As it is a text editor currently one could just copy/paste in the description anyway. But in the future I reckon we need to have either: - An option added under the 'Image formatting options' to select so that description plus image is added to editor on save - Or simply let images with descriptions copy to editor by default and let user delete description if they don't need it. I'll mark this as a wishlist item Cheers Robert ** Changed in: mahara Importance: Undecided => Wishlist ** Changed in: mahara Milestone: None => 18.04.0 ** Changed in: mahara Status: New => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.
