Steps to Reproduce
- Open the Jira Data Center instance.
- Open any issue and proceed to the information banner located within the Comments section.
- Utilize the Tab key to navigate focus to the "Got it" and "Learn more about pinned comments" controls.
- Use a color contrast testing tool to check the contrast.
- Observe that the color contrast between the focus indicator and adjacent color is insufficient.
Screenshot
Actual Results
The "Got it" and "Learn more about pinned comments" controls in the information banner of the comments area use a #398AFF focus indicator color. This color has a contrast ratio of 2.999:1 against the #F4F0FF background, slightly below the recommended minimum of 3:1.
This will make it difficult for people with low vision and color blindness to identify the focus indicator for the user interface controls that have insufficient contrast.
Expected Results
The contrast ratio between the foreground color of the focus indicator and its background color should be sufficient.
Apply the following changes ->
- Ensure that color contrast of focus indicator is at least 3:1 against adjacent colors (foreground and background).
- Use a solid outline that meets or exceeds the 3:1 ratio against the control’s background.
Workaround
Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available.
