material-progress: Accessibility with Screen Readers like JAWS #459

Open
@mandazi

Description

In the material-progress HTML there are ARIA tags but screen readers like JAWS simply say the number. I would like to add the text "percent" so the screen reader would pronounce "70 percent" as an example.

[attr.aria-valuenow]="ariaValueNow"

Source: https://github.com/dart-lang/angular_components/blob/master/angular_components/lib/material_progress/material_progress.html

The screen reader is reading that when the value changes. So it is saying "10" then "20" then etc. I would like it to say "10 percent" then "20 percent" then "30 percent".

What is the best way to accomplish this with the existing code?
