Observe that Target size of buttons available under Kiota openapi explorer is less than required size 24x24pixel.

Actual Results:

Target size for all buttons present under Kiota openapi explorer is 19 by 20 Pixel which is less than 24 by 24 Pixel.

Expected Results:

Target size of buttons available under Kiota openapi explorer should be minimum 24x24pixel. If the controls have spaced in-between, then those spaces should not intersect each other and target size with spacing should be 24x24 pixel for each one.

User Impact:

Users with dexterity limitations and those who have difficulty with fine motor movement find it difficult to accurately activate small targets when there are other targets that are too close. Providing sufficient size, or sufficient spacing between targets, will reduce the likelihood of accidentally activating the wrong control.

WCAG 2.2 does not have to be enforced until april 2025. So no plans to tackle this issue this year. We will reconsider it in 2025.

Width using the ruler scale is W=22 but there is enough space between the controls so closing the bug
