When the default is true

TEXT SIZE MANIPULATION APPROACHES:

If text increase / decrease isn't working for your size your probablly not using responsive font size units (sutch as em, rem etc.).

In that case you can initialize the accessibility tool like this:

new Accessibility({textPixelMode: true})

ANIMATIONS:

Cancel all buttons animations:

new Accessibility({animations: {buttons: false}})

POSITIONING:

You can position the accessibility icon in any place on the screen. The default position is bottom right:

var options = {

    icon: {

        position: {

            bottom: { size: 50, units: 'px' },

            right: { size: 0, units: 'px' },

            type: 'fixed'

        }

    }

}

new Accessibility(options);

But you can also position the icon in the upper left corner of the screen and cancel the fixed positioning:

var options = {

    icon: {

        position: {

            top: { size: 2, units: 'vh' },

            left: { size: 2, units: '%' },

            type: 'absolute'

        }

    }

}

new Accessibility(options);
