Pop Up Boxes Fill Visible Screen
Short Description
Magnifier user cannot access surrounding content or controls because of relative size of pop up box
Long Description
- Screen magnification limits the amount of the screen a user can see at a given time. As a result, a pop up box might wind up filling the whole screen.
- Since the magnifier user cannot see the whole pop up box along with its surroundings, it can be harder to get around or to dismiss the pop up.
