High contrast for colors

[Aleksei Kakoulin]

Hey! Is there an option for color to specify a high contrast color? If not, what is the best way to do it?

[Daniil Subbotin]

Unfortunately, no. This is very rarely used in iOS apps.

[Aleksei Kakoulin]

It is, a good practice to make the interface more accessible.
WCAG has recommendations on this.
It seems to be cool if the utility has this feature.

[Daniil Subbotin]

Yes, I agree. I've mark this as a feature request. But I've never seen designers to provide a high contrast color palette.

[Daniil Subbotin]

Do you work on a project that support high contrast colors?

[Aleksei Kakoulin]

We are now moving to a new palette of colors in which this support will be)

[Daniil Subbotin]

Could you please show or tell me how your designers will support high contrast color palette in Figma?

For example, there is a button_primary color. Will it be represented in the list of color styles in four variants?

• button_primary
• button_primary_high_contrast
• button_primary_dark
• button_primary_dark_high_contrast

Or will each color palette be in a separate Figma file?

[Aleksei Kakoulin]

Each color palette will be in a separate Figma file:

 light
 dark
 light_high_contrast
 dark_high_contrast

I think, we need to add 2 optional parameters, identifiers of the file containing light_high_contrast color palette and dark_high_contrast color palette.
