Alt text for images for accessibility
Season Hoard
Currently, Gamma is lacking basic accessibility features. Despite some requests, these have not been addressed. At the bare minimum, Gamma should offer Alt Text for images and the ability to edit Alt Text. These features should remain when exporting to PowerPoint or PDF. Items that don't transfer well (like boxes) should also have alt text since they seem to transfer to PDF as images. Tables don't transfer well either making them inaccessible once exported to other files. It is simply unacceptable not to have basic accessibility features and to wait for an "update."

When exporting to PPT, for accessibility reasons, it would be nice if the export of the images could also include the alt-text and the H1, H2, etc. labels. This would help with easy compliance with Accessibility Guidelines per ADA requirements for PPT development within education...primarily for those students who require screenreaders to assist in their learning.

Make accessibility checker part of the process. Also add alt text to graphics and pictures. I had to download my presentation into PowerPoint just to make it accessible to all audience members.

Uploaded images need to have a way to add alt text for accessibility purposes
