fix(a11y): stop the dashboard grid announcing a pointer-only instruction - #348
Merged
Conversation
The grid container announced "Dashboard widgets. Drag widgets to rearrange." — an instruction to do the one thing a screen-reader user cannot. #272 fixed the wording on GridstackDashboard but not on DraggableDashboard, the wrapper consumers actually render, so the stale label is what shipped in 2.3.0, 2.4.0 and 2.5.0. The wrapper only passes the prop through, so drop its default rather than copying the new wording into it: two copies of the same default is how these came to disagree. GridstackDashboard now owns the string, and its own test already asserts the keyboard wording renders. DraggableDashboard.test.ts asserted the stale string, which is what guarded it against the change #272 intended. It now asserts the wrapper stays out of the way.

Problem
The dashboard grid container announces
Dashboard widgets. Drag widgets to rearrange.— an instruction to perform the one interaction a screen-reader user cannot. #272 replaced that wording with the keyboard route, but only onGridstackDashboard.DraggableDashboardis the wrapper consumers actually render, and its own default was left behind, so the stale label is what shipped in 2.3.0, 2.4.0 and 2.5.0.The per-widget labels and the pick-up announcements are correct, so the container label was the only part contradicting them.
Why it survived three releases
DraggableDashboard.test.ts:67asserted the stale string, actively guarding the label against the change #272 was making.Fix
The wrapper only passes
ariaLabelthrough, so its default is deleted rather than updated. Two copies of one default is how they came to disagree;GridstackDashboardnow owns the wording outright, and omitting the prop lets its default apply.Tests
DraggableDashboard.test.tsnow asserts the wrapper passes nothing, so the child's default wins — restoring the wrapper default fails it.GridstackDashboard.test.tsasserts the keyboard label renders on.grid-stackwhen no label is passed.The wrapper's test stubs the child, so it cannot assert the rendered attribute. The remaining link — Vue applying a child's default when the parent passes
undefined— was confirmed with a throwaway probe rather than assumed.Verification
