The Advanced Perceptual Contrast Algorithm (APCA) replaces the AA/AAA guidelines contrast ratio in the Color Picker. The Color Picker is used in the Styles tab in the Elements tool.
APCA is a new way to compute contrast. It is based on modern research on color perception. Compared to AA/AAA guidelines, APCA is more context-dependent. The contrast is calculated based on the following spatial properties of the text, color, and context.
- Spatial properties of text that include font weight and size.
- Spatial properties of color that include perceived contrast between text and background.
- Spatial properties of context that include ambient light, surroundings, and intended purpose.
