Blazor Filter Accessibility

The Telerik UI for Blazor Filter component is WCAG 2.1 AA and Section 508 compliant. The component also follows the WAI-ARIA best practices for implementing the keyboard navigation for its component role, and is tested against the popular screen readers.

Wai-Aria

The Filter component represents visually the structure of a filter object. As the filter object can contain nested objects, that hierarchical structure must be represented in the accessibility tree by the role=tree assigned to the component.

Selector Attribute Usage
.k-filter-container role=tree Describes the hierarchical structure of the Filter component.
aria-label Specifies a label for the Filter component.
.k-filter-group-main,.k-filter-item role=treeitem Each FilterGroup and FilterExpression represent a separate treeitem in the Filter component structure.
.k-filter-lines role=group Represents a group if items in the Filter component.
.k-toolbar role=toolbar The role represents a collection of tools.
aria-label Specifies a label for the toolbar.

Each toolbar in the Filter should follow the specification for a ToolBar component. The elements inside the FilterGroup follow the ARIA specification applicable to their specific roles.
