Accessibility Support in Trac

Not every user has a graphic environment with a mouse or other pointing device. Some users rely on keyboard, alternative keyboard or voice input to navigate links and activate form controls. In a Trac session, users can use devices other than a pointing device by enabling keyboard shortcuts through the Keyboard Shortcuts preferences panel.

Trac supports accessibility keys for the most common operations. The access keys differ by browser and the following work for several browsers:

• on Linux platforms, press any of the keys listed below in combination with the <Alt> key
• on a Mac, use the <Ctrl> + <Opt> key instead
• on Windows, you need to hit <Shift> + <Alt> + <Key>. This works for the most common browsers, such as Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Internet Explorer

Also see ​access in different browsers for more details.
