Research direction

Reproduce the copy action in the Preview tab using Edge with Windows Narrator at the provided URL, then inspect the copied confirmation message and its ARIA behavior. Done means the confirmation remains perceivable long enough and is announced through an appropriate status message mechanism without disappearing immediately.

Description

area-accessibility Bot Services bug customer-reported
Is it an issue related to Adaptive Cards?

No.

What is the PWD impact?

Users may not know whether the copy action was successful because the confirmation message disappears before it can be read or perceived. Screen reader users, low-vision users, and users with cognitive disabilities may miss the status update, leading to confusion and repeated actions.

What browsers and screen readers do this issue affect?

Windows: Edge with Windows Narrator

What do you expect?

After the copy action is performed, the confirmation message should remain visible long enough to be perceived and should be announced to assistive technologies through an appropriate status message mechanism
