Alt Text in Grackle Docs

Question

How do I set alt text via Grackle Docs?

Answer

Alt text is accessed by screen readers for people who might have trouble seeing your content. Missing an image description (alt text) will also be alerted. Clicking on red +TAG will open the Tag Images or Graphics dialog box that will give you the options to add Alternative Text or Mark as Artifact. Marking as Artifact ensures screen readers will ignore the description if you do not want it to be read to the end user.

Clicking the red Locate button on any flagged item will take you to that item in your document to review. You can right click on the image to access the Alt Text feature from the submenu.
