a11y(2.5.8): checkbox — add min-h-6 min-w-6 to Label for 24×24 hit area#3545
Merged
Conversation
When labelHidden=true the Label's visible width collapses to ~16 px (the surrogate width), giving a ~16×18 px hit area below the WCAG 2.5.8 24×24 minimum. Adding min-h-6 / min-w-6 (24 px each) to the Label class ensures the clickable region is at least 24×24 regardless of slot content. With a visible label the Label still expands with its text content as before. A11y-Audit-Ref: 2.5.8-labelhidden-checkbox Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <[email protected]>

…erious Adds the audit fix-doc manifest entry referenced by this PR's A11y-Audit-Ref trailer, so the triage workflow resolves the slug instead of labeling it a11y:broken-ref. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <[email protected]>

@rosanusi you may want to examine this one too: It appears the checkbox is left aligned inside of its tap target ("label"). |

With min-w-6, a labelHidden checkbox's <label> collapses to 24px wide while the visible 18px surrogate sat flush-left (6px of dead space on the right). Add justify-center only when labelHidden so the surrogate is centered in the hit area (3px on all sides). Visible-label checkboxes are unaffected — the surrogate stays left, next to its text.

Description
When
labelHidden={true}the<Checkbox>Label's visible width collapses to ~16 px (the surrogateh-4 w-4box), giving a clickable region of ~16×18 CSS px — below the WCAG 2.5.8 (Target Size Minimum, Level AA) 24×24 requirement.Fix: add
min-h-6andmin-w-6(min-height: 24px; min-width: 24px) to the Label's class array incheckbox.svelte. This ensures the<label>element — which is the actual click target wrapping thesr-onlynative input — is at least 24×24 for all consumers. With a visible label the Label continues to grow with its text content as before; only the floor changes.The alternative of enlarging the visual surrogate from
h-4 w-4toh-6 w-6was not chosen — it would change the checkbox's appearance across every consumer and require updating the inner icon positioning.Changed file:
src/lib/holocene/checkbox.svelte— 2 lines added to the Label class array.This fix cascades to all Checkbox consumers in both
ui-mainandcloud-ui-main(via the@temporalio/uitarball).Screenshots
No visual change for
labelHidden=false(label text keeps the Label wider than 24 px). ForlabelHidden=truethe invisible click region grows from ~16×18 to 24×24 around the same 16×16 visual surrogate.Design
No design changes. The 24-px floor is transparent to sighted users; the 16×16 checkbox appearance is unchanged.

A11y-Audit-Ref: 2.5.8-labelhidden-checkbox
Correction (post-review)
Measured the actual
<label>(the click target) before/after; the "no visual change" statements above need amending:labelHidden.min-h-6raises the height floor to 24px, but the<label>is naturally only ~18px tall (leading-[18px]+ the 16px surrogate + its 1px border = 18×18). So visible-label checkboxes go 153×18 → 153×24 as well; thelabelHidden=falserow is not unchanged.h-4 w-4(16px) plusborderwithbox-content. The glyph itself is unchanged.min-w-6, alabelHiddenlabel is 24px wide and the 18px surrogate was flush-left (6px of dead space). Addedjustify-centeronly whenlabelHidden, so the checkbox is centered in the 24×24 target (3px all sides). Visible-label checkboxes keep the surrogate left, next to the text.Decision (with reviewer): keep the 24px floor on all checkboxes — it guarantees a 24px-tall target everywhere for 2.5.8; the ~6px height growth on labelled rows is accepted.
