Known Accessibility Issues
| Functionality | Description | Potential Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Crop a photo for your student ID card. | For those with visual impairment, the ability to crop your photo may be hindered due to the system not describing the exact output of the image that is produced. |
A control bar is available to allow you to manipulate the image, however this will not assist with seeing the final image. Unfortunately, we are unaware of any workaround for this problem and welcome any ideas you may have to alleviate this issue. |
