Accessibility report animation

I am typing a description for a module. As I type, the 'accessibility monitor' animates, like a speedometer. it is distracting. How can i turn this off?

Also, a frowny face emoji consistently shows up next to a document I have scanned in as a resource for students. This is distracting (and, kind-of rude, towards me). How do I remove this so I do not have to look at an emoji expressing disappointment toward me and my work?

    Hello @Mary.B.5383 ,

    Thank you for reaching out to us via Community!

    Could you please confirm if you're looking to disable the Accessibility Checker? Additionally, does it appear to blink even when you haven’t clicked on it?

    Regarding the emoji display issue, would you be able to share a screenshot of what you're seeing? That would help us better understand the situation.

    Thanks,

    Rusha

    You can see the "frowny face" emoji next to my key equations document.

    The speedometer animates as I am typing, even if I have not clicked on it. It is distracting. It needs to either sit there without animating or be removed.

    Hello @Mary.B.5383,

    Thanks for reaching out! It seems that the animation you’re referring to is part of an accessibility tool integration outside of Brightspace. We will investigate this further and follow up with you as soon as we have more information.

    I don't mean to be rude, but those symbols are showing that your content is not accessible to users with disabilities. The best way to get them to go away is to create and choose accessible content.

    It is a scanned document from the book. That is rude. I don't usually participate in forums. Thanks for indoctrinating me as to the behavior of people in these types of discussions. I will be on guard for people who want to launch attacks, and not help.

    The animated speedometer, as I type, is distracting. It would be especially distracting for neurodivergent instructors. Thanks.
