Accessibility

PySol supports the use of screen reader software, such as NVDA. If such an app is installed and running, the screen reader will trigger as you navigate through the game and the app's interface.

Generally, when using accessibility features, it may be necessary to play using the keyboard. PySol games can be played exclusively using keyboard controls, by using the following commands:

• Use the arrow keys to navigate around the different stacks.
• Use the tab key to navigate quickly between talon, waste, tableau, foundation, and reserve.
• Use enter to select/move a card, or shift+enter for a quick play move.
• In some games (typically Mahjongg), you can use shift plus the up and down arrow to navigate between layers in the game layout.

Additionally, the following keys will trigger additional screen reader messages, containing additional information that may be needed by specific games. These are not used by all games, and for the games that use them, the message info will vary from game to game:

• Q - Read a message with additional information specific to the current game (i.e. current score for games that use scoring, or the foundation base rank for games where this can vary).
• V - Read a message with additional information specific to the stack currently selected by the keyboard (i.e. stack coordinates in grid-based games, or current poker or cribbage hand scores).
