One of the key areas we've been working on is improving how JetBrains IDEs interact with OS-level accessibility tools. Improved Magnifier support on Windows Screen magnifiers are among the most commonly used assistive technologies in JetBrains IDEs. Until recently, the built-in Windows Magnifier didn't reliably follow the text cursor in the editor, making navigation and editing more difficult for low-vision users. We've implemented support for cursor tracking so Magnifier follows text as you type, just as it does in other applications.
