Description
File Explorer contains more panes and elements, each of which needs to be updated.
IMPORTANT - some panes are only visible once Power User is active.
Part of the file type display:
- Data Content pane
- RDFXML pane
- n3 pane
- humanReadable pane
- source pane
- pad pane
- internal pane
- default pane
Sharing pane: - sharing pane
Schedule - Schedule pane
Image pane - visible when an image is uploaded in the explorer - Image pane
Folder Pane - Folder Pane
Form Pane - Form Pane
Overall TODO for each:
- adding HTML5 and ARIA labels
- add accessibility tests based on 'axe-core' (example here)
- making sure it also work when resizing screen
- making sure other accessibility features are inline with the WCAG standard (the tests will show). As example: text sizes, button sizes, keyboard focus and so on.
