Journal asked me to remove reference to colour in figure captions as this is inaccessible? There's _also_ a description of line/plotting character type. Seems stupid as my short-sightedness makes distinguishing by colour much easier than by e.g. line type
@_jcken Seems as if someone is just using a checklist rather than actually looking at what you have done.
With well chosen colours, it is *frequently* much easier to tell them apart than looking at line types. The line types are for those who either: can't distinguish colour or are reading on an e-reader that can't display colour.
Imposing unnecessary cognitive load on people isn't what accessibility is about (sigh)
@DToher I think I settled on that. just seems stupid to object to additional description!!
@_jcken perhaps go with "the solid black line in the truth, the dotted red line is the estimate" as this emphasises the difference in the forms of the lines as well as the colours.
But who knows?
