Nov 6, 2026, 5:01 PM@caseyliss Works fine here. In general, it’s a bad idea to change behavior when VO is on. As a low vision person, I’d be bothered if I could see that results have populated but I couldn’t focus them.
the magnifying glass icon should be hidden though.
@pesh so in the alternative universe, for VO, nothing on the screen would move until you commit your search. _Then_ search results would show. (In contrast to the moment you type a letter).
You’re saying the magnifying glass needs to be hidden from VO?
Nov 6, 2026, 11:06 PM@caseyliss It’s nice to be able to type a couple letters, check the first result or two, then type more letters if that wasn’t enough. That goes for VO users and non-VO users.
also a lot of VO users use it part of the time. Having a consistent experience whether or not VO is on is easier to use.
If I understand correctly, the magnifying glass is an icon associated with a larger control that has a label. In those cases, icons should usually be hidden.
@pesh weird; the icon is accessibility ignored. I’ll have to continue to dig.
