XMLWordPrintable

    Issue Summary

    The text present in different tabs fails to meet the required color contrast ratio by default and on hover.

    Steps to Reproduce

    3. Use any color contrast testing tool to check the color contrast.
    4. Observe that the color contrast between the foreground text and the background is insufficient.

    Actual Results

    The "What do you want to say" placeholder text has an insufficient color contrast ratio with the background color. 

    On Expanded state:

    Foreground: #7A869A

    Background: #FFFFFF

    Ratio: 3.7:1

    By Default:

    Foreground: #7A869A

    Background: #FAFBFC

    Ratio: 3.7:1

    On hover:

    Foreground: #7A869A

    Background: #EBECF0

    Ratio: 3.1:1

     
    The "Resolve", "Edit" and "Replay" buttons have an insufficient color contrast ratio with the background color on hover. 

    On Hover:

    Foreground:  #8993A4

    Background: #F2F7FF

    Ratio: 2.9:1

    As a result, low-vision and elderly users won't be able to identify the text. This will cause an unpleasant user experience for users.

    Expected Results

    On all pages, ensure that each foreground/background color combination presents a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 for standard text.

    Workaround

    Currently, there is no known workaround for this behaviour.
