Any word on when Gamma will be fully accessible to those with disabilities?

Make accessibility checker part of the process. Also add alt text to graphics and pictures. I had to download my presentation into PowerPoint just to make it accessible to all audience members.

Alt Text for Images

When exporting to PPT, for accessibility reasons, it would be nice if the export of the images could also include the alt-text and the H1, H2, etc. labels. This would help with easy compliance with Accessibility Guidelines per ADA requirements for PPT development within education...primarily for those students who require screenreaders to assist in their learning.

Hi C T , could you elaborate a bit more on what would be most important from an accessibility standpoint to you? We may be able to make some incremental improvements

Nik Payne (Gamma design) - the following would be a good start:
- Screen reader compatibility
- Keyboard navigation
- Alt text for pics
- Captions for videos
- Enforced heading hierarchies
- Accessibility checker
- Exported Gammas to PPT and other tools that maintain accessibility
I think its important to make sure everyone can easily access info from presentations.
