  1. Zotero and Accessibility

    by llevac · September 17, 2015
    noticed some limitations with regards to its accessibility for people with disabilities. I have noticed some basic discussion on the forum about compatibility with screen readers, and wanted to chime
  2. Tag color palette (and color blindness)

    by aurimas · July 8, 2015
    That's also something I was concerned about, but I think that having the same color-set within a group would be ok. If someone is having accessibility issues with the colors, they could ask the group
  3. Tag color palette (and color blindness)

    by dstillman · July 8, 2015
    I think we could make some small tweaks — in terms of both differentiation and accessibility — but I'm not going to poll Twitter on the colors we use. (Also, as far as I know we've had zero complaints
  4. LibreOffice integration: make reference tooltip human-readable

    by fbennett · June 7, 2015
    You can extend the time that tooltips are displayed, though. Visit Tools -> Options -> Accessibility (under the Writer heading), and you'll see a widget in that pane for setting the time-to-display fo
  5. No attempt to download PDF from APS journal website

    by dstillman · May 3, 2015
    Well, that's a shame, given that the CAPTCHA does almost nothing to actually protect their content (and also completely breaks accessibility in its current state), but we should probably give translat

    I have earlier posted concerns regarding accessibility of Zotero with screen-readers and got a few very informative replies as well. I would rather reserve my accessibility concerns and requests for l
  7. accessibility for blind and visually impaired people

    by Muruganandan · February 22, 2015
    I will also take up the accessibility issues related to Zotero with the developers of NVDA screen-readers and request their help too.
  8. how far Zotero is accessible with screen-readers for the blind?

    by Muruganandan · February 21, 2015
    Zotero is indeed an invaluable source for citation needs and organizing the research materials. I am a visually impaired person (blind) person/researcher, and of course, badly need to use Zotero for m

  10. Report ID:1761828514 - Cannot add PDF files

    by aurimas · December 24, 2014
    Zotero perhaps should allow attaching files via URL (by downloading, not just linking to them) for accessibility. Not sure what would be a good way to implement that without increased burden on the UX

  13. Screen Reader accessibility - Keyboard shortcuts

    by adamsmith · September 17, 2014
    All good points. I'm not involved in that part of development, but I know Dan has mentioned that keyboard accessibility is important, so I'd hope these will happen, though unfortunately especially 1.)

  15. Copy or move from My Library to a Group

    by adamsmith · September 14, 2014
    no, sorry. Unfortunately groups--like collections--aren't really usable without drag&drop at this point. We're aware that causes accessibility issues.

    It is my understanding that improved keyboard handling--not least for accessibility--is very much on the agenda.
  17. Make Zotero fully recognize windows/FF high contrast themes

    There is a keyboard shortcut for "Save to Zotero" (i.e. URL bar icon). It's ctrl+shift+s (cmd+shift+s on mac). It's relatively new, so may have arrived after the accessibility report. What hasn't been

    Here's the reason I ask: I recently requested an accessibility report for this software from GMU's ATI. The report suggested that there is no keyboard accessible way to use this feature out-of-the-box
