Accessibility Conformance Report

• Diagram canvases are named after the diagram type and root element. Shapes and connections are named from the model, and Contents lists a diagram as text.
• Charts and matrix-style diagrams have a text summary of their values; Gantt charts have a summary and a Table View. VoiceOver reads the dashboard chart summaries.
• Users set alt text, or mark an image as decorative, when they insert an image in rich text. Word export keeps the alt text.
• Status icons have names.

Notes:

• Pasted and dropped images start without alt text, and a notification says how to add it.
• Diagram names and Contents are covered by automated and keyboard tests but were not checked with VoiceOver.

No audio-only or video-only content. Tutorial videos have narration and captions (see 1.2.2).

In-app tutorial and feature videos have English caption tracks.

Videos are narrated screen recordings with captions, and each feature has a written Help topic. There is no separate audio description, and it has not been checked that every on-screen action is spoken.

Supports:

• Landmarks (main navigation, banner, breadcrumb navigation, main) and one level-1 heading per page, confirmed with VoiceOver.
• Table headers are read with each cell; in the database, the Name cell is the row header.
• Dialog titles are headings.
• The document outline is a tree with levels, and database filter lists are named groups.
• Editable regions are named text boxes.
• Diagram and Gantt structure is available as text.
• Form controls have names, including the per-item checkboxes in the AI preview for several selected items.

Gap: headings skip a level on the entity page and in some dashboard content, and document sections are not exposed as headings in the document body.

Reading order matches the visual order. Menus, pop-ups and dialogs take focus when they open.

Instructions name controls by their label. References to colour or shape are supplementary.

• Links in running text are underlined.
• Traceability matrix gaps show ○ and "no links", suggestions show + or ?, and locked cells are hatched and named.
• Model check bars carry E and W labels.
• Selected table rows are also described as "Selected" to screen readers.

Gap: not every chart has been checked for a cue other than colour between series. Charts have text value summaries, and several offer a table view.

No audio plays automatically. Videos start only on request and have standard controls.

Supports: menus (including right-click menus with ⇧F10 / Shift+F10 and submenus), item pickers, description fields, document editing, diagram selection, connection, moving and resizing, whiteboard selection, connectors and layers, Kanban, calendar, the Gantt Table View, presentations, the functional flow builder, inspector toggles, database cells and filter lists, dashboard widget position and size (through ⚙), and the diagram colour picker. Multi-selection works with ⇧↑ / Shift+↑ and ⇧↓ / Shift+↓, ⌘A / Ctrl+A and Esc, and its actions open with ⇧F10 / Shift+F10.

Gaps:

• Database column resize is pointer-only.
• The full-size view of an entity's image opens on click only.
• Gantt bars are pointer-only; the Table View is the alternative.
• The simulator's trace marks on Action Diagrams are pointer-only.
• Dashboard widgets are moved by dragging; ⚙ is the alternative.

Not checked with VoiceOver: diagrams and whiteboard tools (covered by keyboard tests only).

Dialogs keep focus inside as intended and close with Esc. In documents, Tab moves focus and indenting uses ⌥⇧→ / Alt+Shift+→ and ⌥⇧← / Alt+Shift+←. The rich-text editor, the whiteboard (after its last element) and the database filter lists all release focus on Tab. Covered by keyboard tests.

Supports: whiteboard single-letter tools, "?", "/" and type-to-edit work only while the board has focus, and ⚙ → Single-Key Shortcuts turns them off. Diagram single-key commands, such as C for Connect…, work only on a focused shape.

Gap: the app-wide "?" shortcut (opens Help for the current page) works whenever focus is not in a text field and no dialog is open. It cannot be turned off or remapped.

Supports:

• Sessions last 14 days idle or 90 days in total, and unsaved work survives a new sign-in.
• Error notifications stay 12 s and have a Dismiss button; other notifications stay 5 s. Both pause while pointed at or focused, and both are announced.
• The two-step sign-in step shows when it ends and warns 2 minutes before.

Gaps:

• There is no setting that keeps notifications until they are dismissed.
• The two-step sign-in step (10 minutes, a security measure) cannot be extended; after it expires, the user signs in again.

No auto-updating or moving content other than loading and progress indicators. Simulator animation can be paused or run to the end. Videos have controls. A reduced-motion setting in the operating system is respected.

No flashing content.

Skip to content is the first Tab stop and moves to the page's first heading, confirmed with VoiceOver. Landmarks are present. Each database filter list is a single Tab stop.

Ease of use: without the skip link, the database table is 22 Tab stops from the top of its page, and an entity's description is 29 Tab stops from the top of the entity page.

Every page sets a descriptive title, including the sign-in, two-step and password-reset screens. The new page's name is also announced after navigation, confirmed with VoiceOver.

Supports:

• Menus and pop-ups take focus and return it when closed.
• Focus is kept after a view redraws.
• After navigation, focus moves to the page's main region, or to a field the page focuses, and the page is announced.
• Dialogs focus their first field or button; a delete confirmation opens on Cancel. Confirmed with VoiceOver.
• A required field left empty receives focus together with its message.
• The whiteboard does not capture keys from focused controls.

Gap: the full-size view of an entity's image does not manage focus as a dialog.

Ease of use: on an entity page, the description is the 29th Tab stop.

Link text, or link text with its row context, identifies the purpose.

No multipoint or path-based gestures are required. Zoom has buttons and a field. Freehand drawing is the function itself.

Moves, connections and drops complete on pointer up. The one action on pointer down (the whiteboard format painter) can be undone.

Accessible names contain the visible text. Verified by code review; no automated label-in-name check was run.

No motion-operated functions.

Pages declare English. Word exports set en-US, and the traceability matrix HTML export sets the language. Other HTML exports (diagram, presentation, Test Center) do not yet declare a language.

Focus alone does not change context.

A member's role in Sharing changes on Apply or Enter (Esc reverts). The diagram type and simulator root selects act on Enter when changed from the keyboard.

Supports:

• Sign-in and account errors are shown as text in an alert region.
• An empty required field shows a message at the field ("Enter a name."), which is announced, marks the field invalid and is linked to it: Create Entity (confirmed with VoiceOver), Save Current Query, Save as Template, Translate Document, Create Baseline, New Trade Study, the single sign-on domain and metadata fields, and the organization and plan settings.
• In the entity view, a number error is linked to its field and marks it invalid.
• Required sign-in fields are not reported as invalid before input.

Gaps:

• In sign-in, account, sharing, new project, API token, billing, support and AI settings forms, the error is shown as text near the form, but the field is not marked invalid or linked to the message.
• In change requests, an empty name or title is reported only in a notification.

Fields in sign-in, account, Create Entity and most dialogs have visible labels, confirmed with VoiceOver. Every control flagged by the last automated check has a name, and the per-item checkboxes in the AI preview for several selected items are named after their item. Filter selects without a visible label show their purpose in the selected option. Screens added after version 1.9.1 have not been through the automated check.

The page structure is generated by script. No duplicate ids were found on the checked screens.

Supports:

• Menus have menu roles and expanded state; items and submenus are read with their position (VoiceOver).
• Item pickers and the ⌘K / Ctrl+K command palette are comboboxes.
• Editable regions are named text boxes.
• Tabs and toggles expose selected or pressed state.
• Inspector labels are checkboxes.
• Diagram shapes and connections are named buttons.
• The traceability matrix grid is named after its row and column sets; database rows are read with the item name once; the sign-in email field is read as required. Confirmed with VoiceOver.
• The document outline is a multi-selectable tree.
• Form controls have names, including the per-item checkboxes in the AI preview for several selected items.
• Selected rows in the database, documents and quality tables are described as "Selected" (not yet checked with VoiceOver).

Gaps:

• Fields in the forms listed as gaps under 3.3.1 are not marked invalid when their check fails.
• Some clickable elements cannot be reached with Tab; most have a keyboard alternative.

No live media.

See 1.2.3. Videos are narrated, but no audio-described versions exist.

Content is not locked to an orientation.

Sign-in, registration, account and two-step fields use the correct autocomplete tokens (username, current-password, new-password, name, email, one-time-code).

The last automated check found no text-contrast failures in the light or dark theme. Placeholder text in fields is at least 4.8:1 in the light theme and 5.3:1 in the dark theme. Links in notifications are bright and bold.

Gaps:

• In the presentation editor, the hint in an empty slide text box ("Click to add text") is about 2.5:1.
• Screens added after version 1.9.1, including the AI preview for several selected items, have not been through the automated contrast check.

Text scales with browser zoom. At widths of 760 CSS px or less, which includes 200 % zoom on displays narrower than about 1520 px, side panels become drawers opened from an edge button, and the top bar wraps. At 900 CSS px or less, the inspector opens over the content. These layouts were tested by emulating the width. Real 200 % zoom has not been tested.

No images of text. Diagram labels are live text.

The shell, side panels, diagram palette and inspector adapt to narrow widths as drawers or overlays. Diagram canvases, the traceability matrix and data tables are two-dimensional content and may scroll in both directions. Not tested at a real 320 CSS px width or 400 % zoom; the assessment comes from the style sheets and emulated widths. It is not established that every view and dialog reflows without loss, including the wide AI preview dialogs.

• Input, select and button borders are at least 3:1.
• Focus rings are 2 px at 9.8:1 or better, including in document editors and on the whiteboard.
• Trade study chart series are at least 3:1.

Gaps:

• The inspector resizer's focus indicator is a faint bar.
• Not every chart series and diagram highlight colour has been measured.
• Focus indicators were checked from the style sheets, not at runtime, because Safari does not show :focus-visible on scripted focus.

Text containers mostly reflow. Some labels (diagram descriptions, item titles) are clamped to a number of lines and are truncated under increased spacing. Not tested with a text-spacing override.

Tooltips appear on focus as well as hover and close with Esc. Pop-ups can be pointed at without closing, and Esc closes only the pop-up.

Navigation rail, breadcrumbs, the ⌘K / Ctrl+K command palette (pages, items and actions), search, and links between items.

Headings and labels are descriptive where present. Database rows, filter lists, the traceability matrix grid and the AI preview checkboxes have short, descriptive names.

Gap: headings skip a level on the entity page and in some dashboard content.

A 2 px focus ring (9.8:1 or better) is used across the app, including document editors and the whiteboard. Diagram shapes have a two-tone focus ring. The inspector resizer shows a faint bar; its contrast is reported under 1.4.11. Checked from the style sheets, not at runtime (see 1.4.11).

Content is in one language. User-entered content is not tagged.

Shell, navigation rail, top bar and inspector are consistent across pages.

Shared components (toolbar buttons, menus, dialogs) are named consistently.

Error messages state the problem and the fix, such as "Enter a name." or "Enter a whole number of months from 1 to 60.", and appear at the field in the dialogs listed under 3.3.1.

Gap: in the forms listed as gaps under 3.3.1, the suggestion is shown near the form or in a notification and is not tied to the field.

Destructive actions ask for confirmation, state the consequence and open on Cancel. Edits can be undone. Deleted items and projects go to Trash and can be restored. AI changes are previewed and applied as one undo step. Security changes require signing in again.

• Notifications are announced through polite and assertive live regions.
• Routine saves are silent; save failures, going offline and recovery are announced. VoiceOver confirmed no announcement on a normal save.
• Diagram, whiteboard, Kanban and item-picker actions are announced.
• Page changes, the Create Entity error and dialogs opened from a menu are announced, confirmed with VoiceOver.
• The progress of AI actions on several selected items ("4 of 12 done"), the number of selected rows and required-field messages are announced.

Note: the notification after a delete and the announcements added in version 1.15.1 use the same live regions but were not checked with VoiceOver.
