- I love this; however, the drag and drop feature does not meet accessibility standards. Is there any way around this, so we can still have cool features that only require a click? Is there any way we can use a double click to drag and drop for the person?
- Hi Eileen - sorry, I meant to edit my comment but ended up deleting it and your reply by accident!
I'm pleased to hear the changes have worked and this demo is now more inclusive. If I'm honest, it was a tricky fix and I am still working on some glitches*. But it was the right thing to do and I am grateful you pointed this out.
Once I have tidied up my master file, I will share it here and also post a blog detailing my process. TL;DR if I had considered this from the start it would have been much more straightforward. Which underlines the importance of always designing for accessibility, even in rapid prototypes such as this one.

- I found I was able to go through the "click" options with the tab button and select the choice I wanted with the space bar.
I was not able to do so with the "drag" option. Maybe instead of "click" call this "keyboard" option. "drag|keyboard".- Hi Alicia - thanks for the feedback. I've since developed demos where the two operations are not separated in this way.
Check out https://bit.ly/elhc380 for an example of a Drag and Drop that can be controlled from keyboard instead without having to toggle between the two interfaces.
