FRED Offers Enhanced Graphing

Our beta-version FRED graphs have a new look with improved accessibility for focus, screen readability, and color contrast. Try our new design and take our survey to help us improve.

  • Keyboard accessibility: Keyboard users can easily determine their location on line graphs. They can also navigate to find content and operate interface elements without a mouse.
  • Screen reader accessibility: FRED graphs have been reformatted to improve the effectiveness of screen reader text-to-speech software, which can be used to access website content.
  • Color contrast: The colors in our graph foreground and background meet color contrast requirements that allow users to visually consume text and non-text elements. Additionally, color is not the sole determinant on multi-series line graphs.
