ATbar Functions

The ATbar can be accessed by clicking on the Launch ATbar button that is located within the block. Ticking the checkbox will cause ATbar to be automatically loaded each time you visit a page containing the Accessibility block.

ATbar has several advanced Accessibility functions on top of the ability to change page styles, including Text-To-Speech and Dictionary lookup.

note

Note: If you change styles with ATbar, they will not persist between pages as they do with the native functions, nor are you currently able to save them.
