No previous message | Next message →

Hi, curious to know if there is any way to test text spacing on the web content rendered through shadow DOM. We tried Text Spacing bookmarklet, and Stylus plug-in, that works on iframe, but seems it doesn’t work on shadow DOM, likely Because CSS is encapsulated in this case. Please share your thoughts if there’s a way to test this, and would that count as a failure?

Thanks!
Ajay

Hi Ajay

Try the A11y Quick Check Chrome extension. I’ve not tested in Shadow DOM.
It contains other useful accessibility checks as well.
