| Bookshelf Voiceover Safari macOS | PASS | The MathML was visually displayed correctly and was read by Voice over initially correctly. By focusing on the math and diving into the equation was ultimately able to navigate the mathML elements individually hearing the fraction, numerator, etc. however it took 3 (VO+ Shift + Down Arrow) to finally be able to interact with the math, and then 3 (VO + Shift + Up Arrow) to escape from the Math equation. It works but very odd that you have to go 3 levels deep into the math equation before you can navigate the MathML element by element. |
