## FAQ

### Does Maximize 2 restart when the pointer comes back mid-animation?

A run that has started plays its 1.13 s to the end, so moving in and out quickly doesn't make it stutter; the next enter after that plays it again. Taps on touch screens are ignored, but keyboard focus plays it.

### Will screen readers read the Maximize 2 icon?

By default it is aria-hidden. Pass aria-label="Maximize 2" to announce it as an image, or leave it hidden when the link or button it sits in has its own text.

### Can Maximize 2 play on click instead?

Yes: pass interaction="click-replay". It then replays once from the start on every click unless reduced motion is preferred.
