Nightly Build: http://build.fluidproject.org/prefsEditors/demos/discoveryTool/

Designs: PGA Preference Discovery Tool June 9

Completed Goal: Provide a robust and extensible means for developers to create and share preference editor views and logic across the GPII; Support developers in creating preference editors, panels and enactors by creating documentation and tutorials.

Completed Goal: Choose and prepare an exemplary piece of content in order to showcase the transformations. We want to demonstrate the Discovery Tool with a single resource that has been implemented using best practices and that has enough features to allow the application of the transformations (for example, a resource with no text wouldn't allow us to demonstrate increased text size).

Completed The Discovery Tool will start with a basic set of presets and enactors:

• high contrast:

  • black on white

  • emphasize links

  • inputs larger

  • sans serif font or monospaced font

• low contrast 

  • light gray on dark gray

  • emphasize links

  • inputs larger

  • sans serif font or monospaced font

• increase size 

  • font

  • line spacing

• simplify 

  • article elements only

  • add table of contents

  • increases line spacing 1.2x, text size 1.2x

• text-to-speech

• more text

  • display alt text, long descriptions

  • show transcripts

Completed Goal: Provide a means for the user to discover settings they might not otherwise have known about.

Completed Goal: Illustrate how the Discovery Tool will integrate with the Preferences Editor and GPII Preferences Services

Goal: Show the transformation of videos based on selected presets in the discovery tool
