Note To help you meet visual accessibility standards, there is a built-in WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guideline) checker on the Widget Settings page. Be aware that if you choose a shade that does not meet these guidelines (for example, the contrast between the text color and the background color is too low), the
check mark by WCAG AA will be replaced by a
warning or
error icon to alert you to possible accessibility issues.
