Increase the color contrast of the bulk action bar

Created on 13 February 2025, about 2 months ago

Problem/Motivation

Same as for the drop button, this issue is not necessarily a compliance one. But the problem is, that the background of the bulk action bar is close to the background layer color wise and therefore the color contrast is rather low. That way it is easily possible that the appearance of the bulk action bar goes unnoticed when a user is selecting an entity.

In comparison Claro uses a clearly visible dark bulk action bar with a rather large color contrast, that way when the component is showing up it is immediately perceived (See the table in https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1won35PxhRFexJYE8FmZ4DCNTo7xEAxC8... or bulk_action.xlsx.zip โ†’ for more details).

Discussed and iterated on the issue with @mgifford, @the_g_bomb, @katannshaw, and @drupa11y

Steps to reproduce

  • Go to admin/content and select an entity so the bulk action bar shows up

Proposed resolution

  • Increase the color contrast between the background color of the bulk action bar and the background layer but ensure that at the same time the components (buttons and labels) within the bulk action bar have a high enough color contrast (>= 3:1) against the new bulk action bar background.
