Text Adjustments#
Test Type Performed#
User’s text adjustments are respected.
Artifact Evaluated#
Annotations: which include titles, axes labels, legends and their labels, colorbar, span (i.e, line), text, and arrows.Plotting interface. Specifically, evaluating the interfaces for all charts in our test environment: line, bar, table and scatter plot.
Results Summary#
Annotations fails to allow users to adjust text, like text stroke, font, and/or font size. Only the hover tooltip respects the changes.
Expected Behavior (Pass/Fail)#
FAIL - Text spacing and font-size changed by the user must be respected. Chart must not interfere with programmatic changes to font sizes or text spacing, such as importing a custom style sheet or using a browser’s build in zoom function. Font size and spacing must adjust accordingly.
Image or Video of Failure#

A line chart is shown. A text stroke filter has been implemented to +1. The text on the web page has adjusted to an increased text stroke, but the chart space retains it’s default settings – no adjustments have been made. Only the hover tooltip respects the stroke change (fails).#
Steps to Reproduce#
Using the Dark Reader extension, go to the “Text Stroke” setting and increase the slider.
