Files app (accessibility): Provide spoken alert for options available in the Action bar

Project Member Reported by weifangsun@chromium.org, Sep 7 2017

Issue description

When a file is selected, we should add a spoken alert telling the user that there are "more options available in top action bar". This gives more indication that the new little menu is now there and you can take action on your selected files.

I'm triaging a11y bugs. 

I have reproduced this bug. I'm not fixing this yet, I'll came back to it later.

This is a FR (feature request) not a bug so I the changed type.

This can be achieved by adding an hidden div with the desired content (supporting translation) and then adding "aria-describedby" pointing to the hidden div id.

I've manually added this using Developer Tools and Chromevox reads it.

Ideally the message should point/say how to get to the action bar.
Got the base idea working see attachments.

1. Hidden div providing more info to screen reader (Chromevox).
2. Keyboard shortcut to reach action bar.

Is almost done, but we need a few confirmations before merging it.

A11y - Add aria description to notify users of actions bar

Add aria-describedby attribute for each file in the file list,
referring to an hidden div, so Chromevox can read div content as
additional information when a file is selected.

See  crbug.com/762749#c11  for screenshot and screen cast of it in action.

Add a div to wrap action buttons and add a new command/keyboard shortcut
Alt+a to be able to focus on the first visible button on the action bar
(at the top).
