[Sigia-l] Right Side Navigation

[Alice Preston]

At the recent UPA conference in Minneapolis, there were several discussions
of accessibility issues, for both blind and partially sighted users.  For
those using screen magnifiers, all content to the right tends to vanish. The
users tested in two mentioned studies had evolved strategies for dealing
with this (which sometimes made the usability testers seasick), including
zooming out to see structure and then back in to read, panning quickly, and
so on. But the fact remained for many of them, anything placed at the right
side of the screen would not be seen.
