Accessibility features

IBM® Planning Analytics for Microsoft Excel has accessibility features that help users who have a physical disability, such as restricted mobility or limited vision, to use information technology products successfully.

The following list includes the major accessibility features :

  • You can use accelerators and command keys for navigation.

    In Microsoft Windows, press the Alt key, then the accelerator to trigger an action; for example, Alt+F shows the File menu. If they are enabled, you can use extended accelerators as well.

  • IBM Planning Analytics for Microsoft Excel uses Microsoft Active Accessibility (MSAA). This means that people with limited vision can use screen-reader software, along with a digital speech synthesizer, to listen to what is displayed on the screen.
  • IBM Planning Analytics for Microsoft Excel supports your system's display settings, such as color scheme, font size, and high-contrast display.
  • IBM Planning Analytics for Microsoft Excel provides text through standard system function calls or through an API (application programming interface) that supports interaction with assistive technology, such as screen-reader software. When an image represents a program element, the information conveyed by the image is also available in text.
