Disclaimer
The TradingView team is actively working to make the library more accessible and compliant with Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2. We understand that our product is complex and feature-rich, and achieving full accessibility for everyone is an ongoing journey. It is important to note that certain components might not fully meet accessibility requirements.
If you encounter any accessibility issues or have suggestions for improvements, kindly contact us at accessibility@tradingview.com. Note that this email is exclusively for accessibility matters. All other questions should be directed to GitHub Issues 🔐 (access is restricted) or the Discord discussions.
At this stage, the library ships with the following accessibility features.
Keyboard navigation
Users can navigate through elements on the top, bottom, and drawing toolbars using the Tab and arrow keys.
By default, users should press Alt + Z to start navigation. Alternatively, you can enable the accessible_keyboard_shortcuts featureset to start the navigation with Tab. In this case, the built-in shortcuts listed in the table below are also changed.
| Action | Default shortcut | accessible_keyboard_shortcuts |
|---|---|---|
| Start keyboard navigation | Alt + Z | Tab |
| Switch between charts | Tab | Shift + → |
| Switch between charts in reverse order | Shift + Tab | Shift + ← |
To disable the keyboard navigation completely, use the accessibility featureset.
The library includes built-in shortcuts that allow users to perform actions in the UI. You can also add custom shortcuts. For more information, refer to Shortcuts.
Color and contrast
Colors on the chart are compliant with the WCAG 2.2 AA standard. The library also provides multiple customization options. For example, you can configure colors for different UI elements, resize the chart size, and adjust fonts. For more information, refer to the Customization section.
Screen reader compatibility
The library supports the following screen readers.
To use a screen reader, users should download and enable it.
