<gui>Accessibility</gui> settings panel:</p>

start typing <gui>Accessibility</gui>.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Click on <gui>Accessibility</gui> to open the panel.</p>
</item>
<item>

</item>
</steps>
<p>To access this menu using the keyboard rather than the mouse, press

bar is selected. Use the arrow keys on the keyboard to move the selected item
to the accessibility menu icon and then press <key>Enter</key> to open it.
