Is it possible to add alt text to the tick icon on an accordion, or “aria-pressed” or similar aria attribute? The issue being for users with low vision, along with assistive technologies, there is no indication on which items have been visited however for sighted users you can indicate with a tick icon and a colour change.

Thank you!

Hi @JordanDeftyTBM , I will raise this with the Evolve devs. As a temporary workaround you could enable the setting in Behaviour to keep the items open, as an indication of which have been visited.

The accordion items do have `aria-expanded` on them…

We ran into this issue too : )

There are some situations where it may be useful to have something to signify which items you’ve already visited, as opposed to which currently have the status of expanded - thinking explained in the other post.
