视觉设计中有效的色彩对比度对内容无障碍至关重要。现有工具虽能识别对比度问题，但常与设计工作流脱节或被事后使用。我们提出ColorA11Y系统，在创作过程中提供即时反馈与可操作建议，帮助设计师创建符合无障碍色彩对比度准则的内容。该系统分析文本与背景元素的视觉属性，提供包括文本颜色调整、背景修改、不透明度变更在内的推荐方案。通过两项用户研究评估其有效性：40名参与者的用户偏好研究显示，不同建议的有效性因设计场景而异；8名设计师参与的定性研究表明，与使用色彩对比度检查工具的基准相比，ColorA11Y能实现更无缝的工作流体验。本研究推进了原生无障碍设计方法，将无障碍考量无缝融入创意过程而非作为事后补充。
英文摘要
Effective color contrast in visual design is essential for content accessibility. While existing tools can identify contrast issues, they often operate in isolation from design workflows or are used as an afterthought. We present ColorA11Y, a system that supports designers in creating accessible content by providing just-in-time feedback and actionable recommendations throughout the authoring process to meet accessibility color contrast guidelines. Our system analyzes the visual properties of text and background elements and offers recommended changes, including text color adjustments, background modifications, and opacity changes. Through two user studies, we evaluate ColorA11Y's effectiveness. A user preference study (n=40) revealed varying effectiveness of different recommendations based on design context, while a qualitative study with designers (n=8) indicated a more seamless workflow experience in comparison to a baseline using a color contrast checker. This work advances a born-accessible approach to design, where accessibility considerations are seamlessly integrated into the creative process rather than treated as an afterthought.
