PIxel art or paint app with accecibility option? (self.Blind)
submitted by nekofluffy
Hello, I'm low vision with lack of sights and want to do small resolution pixel art.
i had been checking many tools out there if they work with screen reader NVDA, but most of them doesn't read up what I want them to tell me
I want it to read up
1. create canvas and modify its size
2. tool I am using
$1save button and its option (preferably scale option for saving it as bigger resolution)
4.dark theme on menu

...I do want simple animation with onion skin, symmetry tool but these are ok without them.

here's the apps I have tried, if there is anything else please let me know!!


\*Aseprite - it didn't read anything from start up
\*Pixel studio - same as above
\*Graphicsgale - it reads up size but have to stop NVDA to choose other tools. no dark theme as well
\*Piskel - it reads up add frame and editable boxes but it doesnt read up tools correctly and save/create/open. it reads up transform tools instead of save menu options
\*Photoshop - it reads up some boxes but NVDA often crashes if i move mouse
\*MS Paint - it reads up most of stuff and very accessible, lack of tools i wanted but no dark theme i suppose

Paint.net has a dark theme if your system is set to dark mode. I don’t know if u can change it just for Paint.net it’s self.

I don't know if it is accessible unfortunately, but Pyxel Edit is another pixel art program that I'm aware of.
