To put contrast on, you typically enable a high contrast mode on your device.
Enabling High Contrast Mode
High contrast mode is an accessibility feature that changes the color scheme of your device to make text and images easier to see, especially for those with visual impairments. Here's how to enable it:
Steps to Turn On High Contrast Mode
The process may slightly vary based on the operating system, but here's a guide using Windows as a common example:
-
Open Settings:
- Click the Start button.
- Select the Settings icon (gear icon).
-
Access Ease of Access Settings:
- In the Settings window, click on Ease of Access (sometimes labeled as Accessibility).
-
Find High Contrast:
- Look for High contrast on the left-side menu.
-
Turn On High Contrast:
- On the High contrast page, you will see a toggle button under Turn on high contrast. Click this toggle to activate the mode.
Key Considerations:
- Visual Changes: Activating high contrast will significantly alter the colors displayed on your screen. Backgrounds may become dark, and text may become bright, or vice-versa.
- Customization: You may have options to select from different high-contrast themes. Some systems allow customization of foreground and background colors.
Other Devices
While Windows is used above, similar functionality is available on other platforms such as:
- macOS: Under "System Settings," "Accessibility," and then "Display" you can enable "Increase contrast".
- Android/iOS: Accessibility settings offer similar options for high contrast or color inversion.
In summary, to put on contrast, you are primarily enabling a high contrast mode in your device's settings which will alter the color scheme to improve visibility.
