This issue is spun off from #3023797-17: Let users choose what to do after selecting and/or adding items in the media library:

It is not yet clear what to do with the uploaded items for the 'X of Y items selected' text. Should they be included or not? What should the actual wording be for this? This could be discussed and improved in a follow up.

This is that follow-up.

phenaproxima created an issue. See original summary.

Version: 8.7.x-dev » 8.8.x-dev

Drupal 8.7.0-alpha1 will be released the week of March 11, 2019, which means new developments and disruptive changes should now be targeted against the 8.8.x-dev branch. For more information see the Drupal 8 minor version schedule and the Allowed changes during the Drupal 8 release cycle.

@seanB and @phenaproxima demo'd #3023797: Let users choose what to do after selecting and/or adding items in the media library and I raised this same concern.

Scenario I saw:

  • User is adding 2 new items
  • User has two items already selected
  • The selected text reads "2 of 5 items selected"

This does not make sense, especially if you are relying on a screen reader and aren't seeing the interface.

In this instance, if there is to be text, it might read something like

"Adding 2 items, selected 2 items, max 5 total items"

This feels wordy, though, so I'm hoping someone has a better solution in mind.

@phenaproxima I think this issue may have resolved itself based on the newest improvements. Can we resolve it?

Version: 8.8.x-dev » 8.9.x-dev

Drupal 8.8.0-alpha1 will be released the week of October 14th, 2019, which means new developments and disruptive changes should now be targeted against the 8.9.x-dev branch. (Any changes to 8.9.x will also be committed to 9.0.x in preparation for Drupal 9’s release, but some changes like significant feature additions will be deferred to 9.1.x.). For more information see the Drupal 8 and 9 minor version schedule and the Allowed changes during the Drupal 8 and 9 release cycles.

#3087389: When selecting media to add through the media library modal, the # of # selected text is contextually confusing, especially if read by a screen reader is a duplicate of this one, but it has a better issue summary and is clearer about the accessibility impact of this. So I'm closing this issue in favor of that one.
