Accessibility options

In the top right corner of every HITGuard page you can find the "person" symbol, with which you can open the accessibility options. You can activate or deactivate them here at any time. Alternatively, you can use key combinations for the activation and deactivation of the accessibility options.

Regular vs. high contrast

Tab Moves Focus

If you use the keyboard instead of the mouse to navigate HITGuard, you may not want the tab key to add an indent but instead move the focus on pages with html-fields (fields, in which you can format the text). You can activate this with the second slide button or with the key combination Ctrl + M.
