Pointer contrast sufficient

Core requirement

The default pointer meets the @@[non-text-contrast] requirement, and is at least as large as the platform default.

Applies when the pointer indicator appearance can be adjusted from the platform default.

There can be multiple types of pointer indicator. For example, arrow, hand, caret. The size requirement applies to whichever type of indicator would be the default for that scenario.

Tests

Procedure

For each custom pointer indicator:

  1. Identify which visual information defines the boundaries of the interactive area.
  2. Check if the visual information meets the minimum contrast ratio test.
  3. For each possible state, repeat step 1 and 2.
