Accessibility Standards Compliance

The ProgressBar component meets a variety of Section 508 and WCAG 2.x compliance standards. Known exceptions:

Section 508 criteria WCAG 2.x criteria Exception description
501 (Web)(Software)
504.2 (Authoring Tool)
602.3 (Support Docs)

ProgressBar does not support Windows High Contrast themes.

Screen Reader Support

The ProgressBar component supports screen readers and complies to WAI-ARIA standards.

To improve accessibility, use the elementAttr property to specify aria-label for the component.

Not all screen readers pronounce the progress status. To make sure the status is pronounced, add the following aria-* attributes:

jQuery
index.js
$(function(){
    $("#progressBarContainer").dxProgressBar({
        elementAttr: {
            'aria-live': 'polite',
            'aria-describedby': 'status',
        },
        onContentReady: ({ element }) => {
            $(element).find('.dx-progressbar-status').attr('id', 'status');
        }
    });
});
Angular
app.component.html
app.component.ts
<dx-progress-bar
    [elementAttr]="elementAttr"
    (onContentReady)="onContentReady($event)"
>
</dx-progress-bar>
export class AppComponent {
    elementAttr = {
        'aria-live': 'polite',
        'aria-describedby': 'status'
    };
    onContentReady: ({ element }) => {
        element.querySelector('.dx-progressbar-status').setAttribute('id', 'status');
    }
}
Vue
App.vue
<template>
<DxProgressBar
    :element-attr="elementAttr"
    @on-content-ready="onContentReady"
/>
</template>

<script>
import { DxProgressBar } from 'devextreme-vue/progress-bar';

export default {
    components: {
        DxProgressBar,
    },
    data() {
        return {
            elementAttr: {
                'aria-live': 'polite',
                'aria-describedby': 'status',
            },
        };
    },
    methods: {
        onContentReady({ element }) {
            element.querySelector('.dx-progressbar-status').setAttribute('id', 'status');
        },
    },
};
</script>
React
App.js
import React from 'react';
import { ProgressBar } from 'devextreme-react/progress-bar';

function App() {
    const elementAttr = {
        'aria-live': 'polite',
        'aria-describedby': 'status',
    };

    const onContentReady = ({ element }) => {
        element.querySelector('.dx-progressbar-status').setAttribute('id', 'status');
    };

    return (
        <div>
            <ProgressBar
                elementAttr={elementAttr}
                onContentReady={onContentReady}
            />
        </div>
    );
};

export default App;
