40+ ### Navigating Math
41+
42+ When focus is on a piece of math content, there is a small help icon in the upper right. Click this icon to see a guide
43+ for how to navigate inside the math content. This can help you understand the meaning of the math content. For example,
44+ here we have navigated to the piece of math content inside the radical:
45+
46+ [!Highlighting the discriminant in the quadratic formula!]{'discriminant.png'}{600}
47+
48+ ### Subtitles for Math

3950Also in the main menu, there is an "Accessibility" submenu. Accessibility is enabled by default, but you can also select
4051"Show Subtitles" in the "Speech" submenu. This allows you to see math content verbalized. To do this, place focus onto
41- a math expression and hit [|enter|]*.
42- * At first, the entire expression is highlighted and there will be a verbal rendering of the expression.
43- [!Speech string for the quadratic formula!]{'explorerfull.png'}{600}
44- * Use the down arrow to navigate "down" into a smaller piece of the math expression.
45- * Use the left/right arrows to navigate to similar pieces of the math expression.
46- * At any time you can navigate back "up" to a larger part of the expression, or "down" into smaller pieces. For example,
47- you can see a verbalization for just this part of the expression above:
48- [!Speech string for the radicand of the quadratic formula!]{'explorerpiece.png'}{600}
49- * Return to the MathJax menu, Accessibility submenu, to explore options for how this explorer tool works.
50- * Under "Speech" you will find options for MathSpeak and ClearSpeak rules. The default is to use "MathSpeak verbose"
52+ a math expression and hit [|enter|]*. At first, the entire expression is highlighted and there will be a verbal
53+ rendering of the expression.
54+ [!Speech string for the quadratic formula!]{'explorerfull.png'}{735}
55+
56+ As you navigate within the math using arrows, you can see verbalizations of the corresponding pieces:
57+
58+ [!Speech string for the radicand of the quadratic formula!]{'explorerpiece.png'}{735}
59+
60+ Under "Speech" you will find options for MathSpeak and ClearSpeak rules. The default is to use "MathSpeak verbose"
5161rules, which try try to read math "literally" without context. For example, it reads [`(1,3)`] as "left parenthesis 1
5262comma 3 right parenthesis". Other speech rules can produce more meaningful verbal renderings. For example with the right
5363ClearSpeak settings, the same math expression produces "the point with coordinates 1 comma 3" or "the interval from 1 to
54- 3 not including 1 or 3".
64+ 3 not including 1 or 3".
65+
66+ ### Voicing Math Out Loud
67+
68+ When focus is on math content, use the [|s|]* character to hear the math spoken. If you would like math to always be
69+ spoken whenever focus lands on math, check Auto Voicing in the Speech menu.
70+
71+ ### Disabling Tab Indexing
5572
5673Some keyboard-navigating users might find it undesirable for each piece of math content to be tab-indexed. If this is
57- the case, then in the "Options" sub menu of the "Accessibility" submenu you can uncheck "Include in Tab Order" and
74+ the case, then in the "Options" submenu of the "Accessibility" submenu you can uncheck "Include in Tab Order" and
5875"Semantic Enrichment". Just note that in order to undo this and make math content tabbable again, you will need to
5976access the menu, and so you will need some way other than tabbing to bring focus back to a piece of math content.
