This PR checks the
prefers-reduced-motion
media query, and disables the parallax effect on Cover blocks if the user has disabled animations.I was reading this article earlier, Accessibility for Vestibular Disorders, and the author mentions the following about parallax elements. I thought of the Cover block, and how we could make this experience better across WP sites by respecting the user setting.
How has this been tested?
I've personally tested with the Cover block + Mac/Safari.
prefers-reduced-motion
is also supported by Firefox (and will be in the next Chrome), so Windows users should be able to use this too. See #14021 for some existing reduced-motion support.To test
