Hi @UI5/ui5-team-tbl, could you please take a look?

this appears to be duplicate: https://github.com/UI5/webcomponents/issues/11983

Could you please reply to the question of @simlin in the referenced issue?

Hi @aborjinik

  1. @duygu-rmdn asked me to create this issue.
  2. https://github.com/UI5/webcomponents/issues/11983 is asking for accessible name while I am asking for accessible description.
  3. The a11y team does not want a change in the text but want a more detailed description.

Hello @wilson-xu-sap,

could you please describe in detail what the a11y team expects here? There is the option to configure the visible texts for all users. And there is already a general description "To load more rows, press Enter or Space" which is the same everywhere and clearly describes the purpose of the button.

Why do you want to customize this description and deviate from other apps?

Best Regards Jens

They want the same behavior as the list.

You mean the experimental https://ui5.github.io/webcomponents/nightly/components/List/#accessibilityattributes ? The list does not offer a description so far for the more button, the table does. So ok, we could provide some option to customize this description in the table.

But I do not get the reason. Which concrete description do you expect? Why this is an a11y issue and the given description is not sufficient? I'm not sure whether it overall improves the a11y when standard functionality is not consistent and customized from app to app.

Hi @simlin I have requested the accessible description in the list, too. I am OK with the current behavior, but the a11y team does not. They have raised tickets so I have to follow.

Hi @wilson-xu-sap maybe the a11y team should answer my questions. Can you please provide their initial complaint or forward this issue to them to answer directly here. Thx

Hi @simlin Could you tell me how to connect you in internal ways?
