Target Size Explorer

Compare pointer-target dimensions with WCAG minimum and enhanced size thresholds, with clear limits on what a size-only check can establish.

Explore a rectangular pointer target’s width and height in CSS pixels. The diagram compares dimensions only. WCAG’s spacing alternatives, exceptions, overlapping targets and actual hit areas require a page-level review.

Size comparison

The dimensions meet the 24 × 24 CSS-pixel size threshold in WCAG 2.5.8.

The dimensions do not meet the 44 × 44 CSS-pixel size threshold in the enhanced AAA criterion; its exceptions still need review.

Short dashes show 24 × 24; long dashes show 44 × 44. The illustration scales to fit the page and is not a physical measurement.
