Designing for Accessibility
summary
Power BI Desktop shows concrete accessibility moves: use Alt+Shift+F11 to expose a screen-reader-friendly data table, set tab order via Selection pane (or let Power BI auto-match visual order), write dynamic alt text with DAX so exported PowerPoint keeps descriptions, apply WCAG-compliant themes (4.5:1 and colorblind-friendly) and detect Windows contrast settings, rely on data labels/markers instead of color alone, and offer a simple quiz scoring (example targets like 80/100) to gate report publishing.
