Color Meaning#

Test Type Performed#

Color is used alone to communicate meaning.

Artifact Evaluated#

Plot tools. Specifically, evaluating the interface icons that are used to access the tools that are in the scatter plot.

Results Summary#

Plot tool icons pass. When a tool is selected there is a dashed, blue line bordering the icon. When the icon is toggled “On”, there is a thicker, blue line on the left border of the box.

Expected Behavior (Pass/Fail)#

  • Pass - We expect any interactions on a chart space to notify the user with more than color alone.

Image or Video of Failure#

Steps to Reproduce#

Using a mouse or keyboard, click on or TAB then ENTER to the desired plot tool. Icons can be selected again to toggle “on/off” settings.
