accessibility

Hi,

 

I noticed that the graphs in powerbi weren't accessible using just the keyboard. For example a user using just the keyboard would not be able to get to  a section of a pie chart to view detaIls of that section and the bar graph is similar. When giving focus to a graph, users can't reach the  maximize button with their keyboard. These issues show up on desktop and web. Is there any work being done on this?

Hi @t-armemo,

 



For example a user using just the keyboard would not be able to get to  a section of a pie chart to view detaIls of that section and the bar graph is similar. 

The visualizations on a single report page are all "connected" to each other.  By default, visualizations on a report page can be used to cross-filter and cross-highlight the other visualizations on the page. For example, if you select a section of a pie chart, other visualizations that use that same value will change based on that selection. You can see relative details in a table visual only applies to that selected section. Reference: Interact with a report in Reading View in Power BI

 



When giving focus to a graph, users can't reach the  maximize button with their keyboard. These issues show up on desktop and web.

What did you mean the maximize button? Do you mean users cannot see the 'Focus mode' option on the top right of visual in your scenario? Also, what is the keyboard you mentioned? Would you please provide some screenshots to help us better understand your issue?
