# Accessibility options on dashboards

# Accessibility options on dashboards {#ariaid-title1}

* Release version: Xanadu

Understand how accessibility settings affect reports and Performance Analytics widgets on
dashboards. Data visualizations on a Workspace are also affected.

<br />

You can enable and disable these Accessibility options to make your experience in an instance more accessible:

* Replace colors and patterns in charts and graphs
* Enable data table for charts and graphs

Open your Preferences to access the Accessibility options. For more information, see [Configure Next Experience accessibility preferences](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=next-experience-accessibility-preferences&version=xanadu&pubname=xanadu-platform-user-interface&ft:locale=en-US).

## Data visualization patterns enabled

Here's an example of a dashboard showing visualizations without accessibility enabled. The dashboard shows the following visualizations:

* A donut report
* A bar report
* A time series Performance Analytics widget
{#analytics-accessibility-options__ul_ecz_hqg_rrb}  

<br />

When you select Replace colors with patterns with charts and graphs,
you can see how the visualization's solid colors become differently patterned for more
accessible viewing.  

<br />

## Data table enabled

When you select Enable data table for charts and graphs, data tables
replace the charts on Performance Analytics widgets. On reports, a plus + icon appears.  

<br />

Here's a closer view of the plus icon which, when enabled, displays regardless of the data
table setting set for individual reports.  

<br />

Click the plus icon to display the corresponding data table.
