      Actual Results

      When checked with the color contrast analyzer tool, the color contrast for the “Warning” icons present in the main content fails the color contrast with the following details →

      FG : #FFFFFF, BG : #FFAB00, and Ratio : 1.9:1

      As a result, low-vision users will face difficulty accessing the informative images.

      Expected Results

      For all informative images, ensure that the contrast between foreground, background, or adjacent colors is 3:1 to make the image's information accessible for users with low vision and color blindness.

      The expected contrast ratio can be achieved by increasing the contrast of foreground color until it passes a contrast ratio i.e. 3:1.

      A color contrast analyzer can be downloaded from Color Contrast Checker - TPGi

      Workaround

      Currently, there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
