Raiser's Edge for low vision users

Virginia Brown

Hi all - a member of my team has low vision. The screen reader app we have doesn't really work for Raiser's Edge NXT - what we're using. Does anyone have recommendations on low vision accessibility tools for NXT?

@Virginia Brown Since NXT is web browser based, have you tried using the zoom functions in the browser? I'm not aware of any high contrast options or filters for NXT.

@Dariel Dixon Thanks for that. My employee is doing this now, but it's sort of a mess. Hoping there might be somehing a bit more user-friendly out there.

@Virginia Brown If your user is not already using the native MS Windows accessibility features, they are very good and quite customizable. Also, one can increase the mouse pointer size and contrast which helps some people.

@Virginia Brown I've seen low vision users benefit from using web view on an iPad, where they can pinch-zoom in and out to their liking and preferred frequency.
