Created attachment 186822 [details] Example file with one decorative marked image When an image is marked as decorative, the accessibility sidebar should not warn about its missing alt description. 1. Open attached file 2. Open the Accessibility sidebar -> sidebar warns about two images missing alt description, but the upper image is also marked as Decorative - so it should be irrelevant for a11y, and no warning should be there. Word 2019 has this behavior too.
