Re: How to check visualizations in iframes

Thank you very much for your replies. I will use the suggestions. I worked
on web apps before, but never had to review charts for accessibility.
That's why I'm so clueless.
I don't have decision making power to use or not to use Tableau. So, I need
to do what I can with what I have.
In their conference this year, Tableau mentioned that they have started
applying accessibility into their components and they presented a list of
components that are accessible now. Do you think that this is wishful
thinking or it is actually making the software accessible?
Thanks
