Highlights

Additional blocks under Section Blocks

In Loree Editor Interface, it allows the users to create a 2column blocks with 50/50 model. It doesn’t allow the users to change the width size of any column.

2col (60/40):

This block allows the designers to create a new 2column section with 60:40 ratio. By dragging this block into Editor, you can design a content with left column of 60% and right column of 40%.

Accessibility Checker for Video Title

we enhanced our Accessibility Checker execution to detect video title related fixes. Earlier, Loree doesn’t have the option to detect video title related accessibility issues.

When designer adding video related contents in their page, it should pass the accessibility related issues.

Dragging a video (or) video with caption block, by default it will have title attribute as “video content“. When there is no title for video related contents, it will be detected when user runs “Accessibility Checker“ within Loree Editor.

Quick Fix on Video title errors:

Loree allows the users to fix the video title related accessibility issues within editor panel. In the above screen, you can see the Quick Fix modal. Where user can give the suggested title and click on “Quick Fix“ icon will update the suggested title.

Note: After fix it, you have to click on “Update & Save“ to make sure the fix updated in Loree Editor Interface.

Accessibility Checker for Colour Contrast

We have implemented the accessibility checker rules for checking the colour contrast scheme. Loree using WCAG 2.0 AA standard to maintain the aspect ratio for colour contrast.

Right now, Loree will detect the colour contrast issues and will highlight the issues on Accessibility Checker result.

In the upcoming releases, we will focusing on adding “Quick Fix“ for the colour related contrast issues.
