  <title>Find the accessibility menu</title>

  <p>The <em>accessibility menu</em> is where you can turn on some of the
  accessibility settings. You can find this menu by clicking the icon which
  looks like a person surrounded by a circle on the top bar.</p>

    <media its:translate="no" type="image" mime="image/png" src="figures/preferences-desktop-accessibility-symbolic.svg"/>
  </figure>

  <p>If you do not see the accessibility menu, you can enable it from the
  <gui>Accessibility</gui> settings panel:</p>

  <steps>
    <item>
      <p>Open the <gui xref="shell-introduction#activities">Activities</gui> overview and
      start typing <gui>Accessibility</gui>.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Click on <gui>Accessibility</gui> to open the panel.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Switch the <gui>Always Show Accessibility Menu</gui> switch to
      on.</p>
    </item>
  </steps>

  <p>To access this menu using the keyboard rather than the mouse, press
  <keyseq><key>Ctrl</key><key>Alt</key><key>Tab</key></keyseq> to move the
  keyboard focus to the top bar. A white line will appear underneath the
  <gui>Activities</gui> button — this tells you which item on the top bar is
  selected. Use the arrow keys on the keyboard to move the white line under the
  accessibility menu icon and then press <key>Enter</key> to open it. You
  can use the up and down arrow keys to select items in the menu. Press
  <key>Enter</key> to toggle the selected item.</p>
