  • Ticket #42006 – Description

    initial v16  
    1111What seems to happen here is that Safari and VoiceOver "see" the visually hidden screen reader text placed a few pixels above the visible text and thus they think it's in a line ''before'' the visible text.

    13 Screen readers tend to read "by line" but CSS shouldn't affect the way they announce text so this "feature" seems very questionable to me. It's not the first cass where CSS has side effects on screen readers though.

    1515The only way I've found to fix this is moving the screen-reader-text a few pixels down so it's on the same "virtual line" of the visible text, or even a bit below it.
