Dear openSUSE community,
As part of our next development sprint, YaST team will work to improve the installer support for low-vision accessibility. There's an interesting bug report[1] by Bryen Yunashko that you should read.
As described in the bug report, the hotkey for switching to inverted mode in Qt does not work anymore and using the ncurses version adding some options to the boot prompt is not user-friendly.
Our plan is trying to implement some simple solution and ask for feedback. But, as starting point, we would like to know you opinion. Adding a new option to the boot menu would be enough as a first step? Of course, we should check if the Shift+F4 option can be brought back.
By the way, what things should we have into account? Please, feel free to add your opinion in this matter.
Thanks in advance!
Regards, Imobach
Victorhck kindly translated our call for help to Spanish and he got feedback from a person with vision problems[1]. For those who cannot read Spanish, he claims than the two most relevant helpers for him would be: 1. Screen magnifier, with one shortcut to activate it and another one to adjust the size. 2. An installer with speech synthesis, like the one available in Debian, so the user just have to listen and enter numbers to select the different options. Just wanted to make sure that feedback don't get lost. Cheers.
