2.4.13 Focus Appearance
The focus indicator needs a minimum size and contrast.
What this means in practice
New in WCAG 2.2. In practice: at least as thick as a 2 CSS pixel perimeter around the element, and at least 3:1 against the unfocused state. A hairline light outline no longer qualifies.
What Wave Access contributes
Stärke und Farbe des Fokusrahmens lassen sich in Wave Access einstellen.
