Animated Gifs under WCAG 2.1 conformance
Under WCAG 2.1 we need to give control of animated gifs to the learner. Gifs cannot loop, so they need controls to either hide, pause or stop the gifs.
This is particularly difficult to do in Rise...
Hi HMCTS Learning,
Great question! I understand you would like some information on controlling GIFs so they can be accessible. I'd be happy to help find that for you! I have a follow-up question to better understand your situation.
- Are you creating the GIFs or using ones that already exist? If you are creating GIFs, you can use the online GIF creator we recommend and the number of loops can be set before the GIF is imported. Here is a link to the loop count setting. If not, there currently is no way to hide or pause GIFs after they are created.
Thanks for reaching out!
