[Reflow for Configurable Workspace](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=auto-reflow&version=yokohama&pubname=yokohama-platform-user-interface&ft:locale=en-US)
:   The Audit Management
    configurable workspace supports reflow, which enables pages and content to be zoomed up to 400% through your browser settings without loss of content or functionality.

Visit the [ServiceNow Store](https://store.servicenow.com/sn_appstore_store.do#!/store/home) website to view all the available apps and for information about submitting requests to the store. For cumulative release notes information for all released apps, see the [ServiceNow Store version history release notes](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/r/store-release-notes/sn-store-release-notes.html).{#grc-audit-rn__grc-audit-rn-activation-1}

## Accessibility information {#grc-audit-rn__grc-audit-rn-accessibility}

Accessibility improvements
:   Accessibility improvements were completed to create a configurable workspace that supports WCAG 2.1 Level AA conformance.

Reflow
:   The Configurable Workspace supports reflow, which enables pages and content to be zoomed up to 400% through your browser settings without loss of content or functionality. Additionally, content can be
    enlarged without scrolling in two dimensions at a width equivalent to 320 CSS pixels or a height equivalent to 256 CSS pixels. Page layouts are transformed into a vertical, stacked view automatically when users increase
    browser zoom to 400%. This enhancement helps users with low vision or who have trouble seeing web content in a browser due to monitor size, device type, poor lighting, or other situations. Reflow can be turned off with a
    system property for instances, experiences, and pages. See [Reflow for Configurable Workspace](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=auto-reflow&version=yokohama&pubname=yokohama-platform-user-interface&ft:locale=en-US).
