You can add alternative text to images to allow screen readers to identify image content.
To add alternative text to an image in the Weka editor, follow these steps:
- Upload an image in the text editor.
- Click the image, then click Alt text on the floating toolbar above the image.
- Enter the alternative text and click Done.
Alternative text should be a brief and specific description of what is shown in the image. It is not necessary to preface the description with 'image of' or 'picture of'. Images of text should be kept to a minimum. However, if images are used as button functionality, the alt text attribute should describe the function of the image, for example 'Sign up' or 'Submit'.
